ABSURD PERSON SINGULAR Hits The New Theatre, Cardiff 6-10 October.

Alan Ayckbourn's Absurd Person Singular hits the New Theatre, Cardiff Tuesday 6 - Saturday 10 October.

Performances will take place evenings at 7.30pm; Wednesday, Thursday & Saturday Matinees 2.30pm.

The biggest West End comedy hit of 2008 is coming to take Cardiff by storm as Bill Kenwright's critically acclaimed 'Savagely Funny', 'Seriously Hilarious', and 'Dazzling' production of Alan Ayckbourn's Absurd Person Singular comes to the New.

It's party time at the Hopcrofts’ and the only present they want is to succeed in scaling the social ladder. Havoc ensues at the drinks party they hold to impress their high-powered friends - but that's nothing compared to what happens over the next two years when the friends return their hospitality!

Featuring an all star cast including Lisa Kay, best known in her current lead role as Nurse Carol Cassidy in ITV1's Heartbeat, Elizabeth Carling, well known for her lead performances in Casualty, Goodnight Sweetheart and Barbara, Matthew Cottle, who starred in the hilarious BBC comedy Game On, Stephen Beckett, renowned for his long running roles in Coronation Street and The Bill, Deborah Grant, whose numerous starring roles include Bouquet of Barbed Wire, Bergerac and most recently, the BBC’s hit series Not Going Out and Robert Duncan, best known as Gus from the Channel Four cult comedy hit Drop the Dead Donkey.

A classic comedy with outrageous characters - this is Ayckbourn at his best!
