Norwich Theatre has added to its 2022 line-up including a one-man show from Dame Edna star Barry Humphries and the stage show of a popular film.
2022 also will play host to an intimate evening with Barry Humphries in The Man Behind the Mask.
This show sees the star peel off his Dame Edna mask to introduce the man behind the clown in a confessional evening seasoned with highly personal, sometimes startling, and occasionally outrageous stories.
The show runs for one night only on May 15 at the Norwich Theatre Royal.
Top comedian and longstanding Mock the Week special guest Gary Delaney will take to the stage of the Norwich Playhouse in Gary in Punderland.
Running from May 17 to 18, the show is guaranteed to get you laughing out loud with his sharp one-liners.
Originally running for 13 years on BBC Radio 4, Ladies of Letters is arriving in Norwich. The show sees the best frenemies use the art form of letter writing to vent their views.
