The Northern Broadsides and York Theatre Royal production of J.B.Priestley's When We Are Married is currently playing York Theatre Royal before heading out on tour. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

Cleckleywyke, a town in the West Riding, 1908.The Helliwells, the Parkers and the Soppitts are highly respected pillars of their community ... but not for much longer. Married on the same day in the same chapel, they gather to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. The celebrations are short lived when they discover the vicar wasn't licensed and they are actually not married. In fact, they have been living in sin for 25 years.

Director Barrie Rutter will be joined in the cast by Sue Devaney (Jane in Victoria Wood's Dinnerladies and Debbie Webster inCoronation Street), Adrian Hood (Dinnerladies, the film Brassed Off and All Quiet on the Preston Front, BBC), Kate Anthony (Pam Hobsworth in Coronation Street and Anything Goes, Sheffield Crucible Theatre), Steve Huison (Lomper in the hit British film The Full Monty and as Eddie Windass in Coronation Street), Luke Adamson(Blood and Chocolate, Slung Low and Pilot Theatre), Matthew Booth (Last Train to Scarborough, Stephen Joseph Theatre), Geraldine Fitzgerald ( Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, UK Tour and Gypsy, The Curve), John Gully (The Merry Wives, Northern Broadsides), Sophia Hatfield (An August Bank Holiday Lark, Northern Broadsides), Lisa Howard (The Duchess of Malfi, Nottingham Playhouse), Zoe Lambert (Emmerdale and The Wizard of Oz, Northern Stage), Kat Rose-Martin (The Gamblers, Northern Stage/Dundee Rep), Mark Stratton (The Merry Wives, Northern Broadsides) and Andy Hall.
