The hilarious comedy 'Stage Struck' opens tonight at the Shaftesbury Theatre, the first live production since the theatre was closed in March 2020 due to the pandemic.

Written by Yvonne and John Eddelston

Directed by Paula Smith

The Topspot Theatrical Agency has fallen on hard times. Business is bad, and the only glimmer of hope seems to be a call from a television company seeking regulars for a new police drama series based on the London underworld. Things also seem to be looking up when Jenny gets a telephone call from Robbie Williams, seeking new management.

At the same time, the detective agency next door, which has a somewhat similar name, is doing rather well, due to mainly nefarious practices. The owner, David Mackay, has now agreed to fence some stolen jewels for the local gang boss, James Malone. Malone and his henchman are not the brightest sparks and by mistake go into the wrong office, that of the theatrical agency, where they hide the jewels.

Join us to witness the attempts to retrieve the jewels, to arrest the bad guys, and of course, to save the agency.

The show performs nightly until Saturday 7th August at 7:30pm. Tuesday 3rd and Wednesday 4th performances will be seated with social distancing. Tickets are on sale now via www.shaftesbury-dawlish.co.uk
