The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 & ¾ - The Musical

Tue 19 – Fri 22 May • 7.30pm • Admission £15 • Community Theatre

A joyous new musical adaptation of Sue Townsend’s much-loved book. ‘A bittersweet blast of pre-digital fun that speaks to all ages’ (The Times), this timeless tale of teenage angst, family struggles and unrequited love, is told through the eyes of tortured poet and misunderstood intellectual Adrian Mole. One of the most enduring comedy characters of all time, he’s the hapless, hilarious, spotty teenager who captured the zeitgeist of 1980s Britain.

With an infectious score and a script as sidesplittingly outrageous as the original novel, this new musical brings Adrian’s story to life for a new generation of theatregoers, and those old enough to remember his adventures first time around! An entertaining romp through teen awkwardness we can all relate to!

Running time: 2 hours (plus interval)

Age recommendation: 12+

Content warning: some adult humour and mild language

Bullshot Crummond

Wed 17 – Sat 20 Jun • 7:30pm • Full £15 Concs £13 • Community Theatre

By Ron House, Alan Shearman, Diz White, John Neville Andrews, Derek Cunningham

The evil Otto Van Brunno and the dastardly Lenya are up to no good. Having kidnapped a Professor for their nefarious purposes, it’s up to the dashing Bullshot Crummond to save the day!

A riotous parody of 1930s adventure stories and stiff-upper-lip heroics, The Rondo Theatre Company presents Bullshot Crummond – a fast-paced, gloriously silly send-up of British pulp fiction. Expect moustaches, maniacal villains, damsels in distress, and a lot of quick changes — all delivered with a wink and a perfectly polished accent. Think Indiana Jones meets The 39 Steps meets Blackadder, but with even less sense and a lot more fun. Audience dressing up is encouraged!

This is the Rondo Theatre Company’s annual charity production.

Running time: 2 hours (approx)
