Cardiff's New Theatre has a number of upcoming shows including DAD'S ARMY MARCHES ON, and MORECAMBE.

DAD'S ARMY MARCHES ON will run from July 13 through July 17. The boys are back in town. To celebrate 70 years of the Home Guard, Dad's Army is returning to the stage with a brand new adaptation of the classic sitcom. The same team who cleverly breathed life into the Lost Episodes are dusting down their uniforms and polishing their medals to bring these much-loved characters back to the New Theatre. A fabulous comic cast is headed by Leslie Grantham, putting his best foot forward as Pte. Walker.

The play features classic episodes hand-picked by legendary writers Jimmy Perry and David Croft and includes adaptations of their own personal favourites, Branded and Mum's Army. Sign up now for an evening of nostalgic pleasure and madcap mayhem with the would-be heroes of Walmington-on-Sea.

Ceri Dupree will perform DIVALICIOUS on July 30 and 31st. at 8pm. The UK's leading female impersonator, the fabulous and flamboyant Ceri Dupree is back at the New Theatre with his new One Man, One Dozen Divas show.

Join Ceri for an evening of hysterical comedy, amazing vocal impersonations and jaw dropping costumes. Meet Cher, Joan Collins, Amy Winehouse, Tina Turner, Her Majesty the Queen and many more.

A touch of Las Vegas rarely seen in the UK, Ceri always sells out - so book early.

MORECAMBE will play from September 7 through September 11. Direct from its smash West End run and winner of the Olivier Award for Best Entertainment, Bob Golding's extraordinary portrayal commemorates the 25th anniversary of Eric Morecambe's untimely final curtain, celebrating the wonderful life of Britain's best-loved comic.

This is a moving portrait of an affectionate lad with funny bones, a born entertainer, a big-hearted perfectionist. So come laugh, come cry, come and celebrate "the tall one with glasses" who had that twinkle in his eye and shared it with us all.

Featuring the multi-talented Bob Golding - who could have been born to play Eric, penned by the brilliant Tim Whitnall and directed by solo-maestro Guy Masterson, Morecambe is a must-see for all fans of classic British comedy.
