Intent on giving people a “lovely, happy night in the theatre” Victoria Wood revived her 1980s soap opera Acorn Antiques with a musical of the same name staged for the first time in 2005. Massively popular in the late eighties, this revival became an Olivier award-winning show with a tremendous cast including Julie Walters and Celia Imrie.
It is with great pleasure to announce that The Crescent has now got the rights to perform this classic comical satire…that you can audition for! We are the only non- professional theatre in the Midlands and the one of two in the UK to have ever got the rights to this show. And personally, it means so much more because Celia Imrie opened The Crescent Theatre fifteen years ago in it’s current location in Sheepcote Street.
Auditions for this will be taking place within the next month or so. If you want to get involved keep an eye out on the Crescent website auditions page which will detail when and where to come!
