Wiltshire Creative has announced the cast for their upcoming world première of Chris Chibnall's new comedy One Last Push, as part of their spring 2024 season. Learn more about the production here.

The most famous Gothic horror story of all time Dracula is coming to the Harlow Playhouse on Thursday 17th March 2020. Adapted and performed by TV and West End star James Gaddas, best known for his roles in Coronation Street, Bad Girls, Doctors and Emmerdale, Dracula questions “Are some things – better left buried?!”
