The nation’s favourite sitcom returns! The boys are delighted to head to the Torch Theatre with three new episodes.
Two actors, two microphones, over twenty-five characters - and lots of sound effects! The Dad’s Army Radio Show brings Perry and Croft’s classic BBC comedy to life in this highly acclaimed stage production.
Three episodes of the popular sitcom - adapted for radio for the very first time - are hilariously and lovingly enacted on stage by two master performers - complete with sound effects, vintage music and all your favourite Perry and Croft characters and catchphrases.
The original television episodes newly minted for The Dad’s Army Radio Show national tour 2024 are:
● The Love of Three Oranges
● The Miser’s Hoard
● The Making of Private Pike
As seen on Dad's Army: The Animations (UKTV Gold), David Benson (Goodnight Sweetheart and One Man, Two Guvnors) and Jack Lane (Wisdom of a Fool and 7 Days) will transport you right back to Walmington.
‘Benson and Lane’s two-man Army are a comedy force to be reckoned with.’
