Direct from London’s West End, where it ran for a year to rave reviews, packed houses and was nominated for the Olivier Award for Best Choreography, the hit musical Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is coming to Leeds.
Based on the legendary 1988 film Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with Michael Caine and Steve Martin the comedy-musical is at Leeds Grand Theatre from Tuesday 30th June to Saturday 4th July.
Starring Michael Praed (Robin of Sherwood), Noel Sullivan (Hear’Say, We Will Rock You), Carly Stenson (Hollyoaks, Spamalot, Shrek) and Mark Benton (Waterloo Road, Doctor Who, Hairspray), audiences will be transported to the luxurious lap of the French Riviera where the decadent world of sophisticated conman Lawrence Jamieson is set to come crashing down with the arrival of larger-than-life Freddy Benson, a conman of an entirely different order.
Soon realising the town ain’t big enough for the both of them, the two find themselves going head to head in the con of their lives, pulling out all of the stops in a bid for the affections of millionaire soap heiress Christine Colgate. Little do they know what they’ve let themselves in for.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is at Leeds Grand Theatre from Tuesday 30th June to Saturday 4th July 2015. Tickets are on sale now at £25. Book online at leedsgrandtheatre.com or call the Box Office on 0844 848 2700.
