Stars of DUTY FREE to Reunite for 'Summer Fling' at the Lyceum, June 16-21

Sheffield Theatres welcomes the stars of the original hit TV series, Duty Free, as they reunite for a summer fling at the Lyceum Theatre from Monday 16 until Saturday 21 June.

Duty Free sees the return of original cast members Keith Barron and Gwen Taylor, who play working class duo David and Amy, and Neil Stacy, joined by Carol Royle, as the upper-middle class Robert and Linda; who met whilst holidaying in Spain 28 years ago. When opposites proved to attract, a most unlikely romance developed - with extraordinary consequences.

Now they are back: David more lustful, Amy more cynical, Robert more dangerous, and Linda more romantic than ever! With love in the Mediterranean air, holidaymakers watch on in disbelief as deceptions, misunderstandings and preposterous situations unfold, with the love struck protagonists trying every trick in the book in order to keep their amorous intentions a secret.

Gwen Taylor played the title role in ITV sitcom Barbara, Ann Foster in Coronation Street, and has starred in Heartbeat, Class Act and Midsomer Murders. Keith Barron most recently starred in BBC's Lapland playing a role which he then returned to in Being Eileen. He's also known for Haggard and All Night Long, and was a regular character on ITV's Where the Heart Is. In 2007 Barron joined ITV1's Coronation Street as George Trench. Neil Stacy has appeared in many other television favourites including To Serve Them All My Days and Rumpole of the Bailey. Carol Royle is known for her role as Jenny Russell in the BBC sitcom Life Without George, and has made other television appearances including Heartbeat, The Professionals, Crossroads and Casualty. Completing the cast are Graham Elwell, James Barron and Maxine Gregory.
