Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith have announced their immensely popular play Inside No.9 Stage/Fright will be heading on a UK tour this autumn. This on-stage version of the hit anthology series has been running at the West End since January and was supposed to be wrapping up on 5th April but, in classic Inside No.
9 style, just when you think it's all over there's yet another twist waiting. The show's sold out London run has delighted fans and reviewers alike (including earning five stars from the RadioTimes.com ) thanks to its combination of familiar moments from the TV show with new storylines and surprise celebrity guests.
Following this success, the co-creators have decided to take the play on tour to 11 venues this autumn, and will be once again starring on stage together. Here's what Shearsmith and Pemberton had to say about the new tour: "We have been bowled over by the success of Inside No 9 Stage / Fright at the Wyndham’s Theatre. Selling out every performance before the run started and being nominated for an Olivier Award was fantastic enough, but the nightly reaction from fans and newcomers alike has been exhilarating and really quite moving.
" They continued: "So we are delighted to be able to bring the show to a wider audience around the country. The phrase ‘swan-song’ refers to a final performance, often associated with the ancient belief that swans sing beautifully just before their death. Which is a load of bo*****ks of course as all swans do is s**t and honk.
"So come along to the swan-song tour of Inside No 9 and see for yourselves how we bow out. There won’t be a dry seat in the house." The play will be coming to Milton Keynes, Sunderland, Canterbury, Birmingham, Manchester and Woking.
Before heading to Hull, Oxford, Stoke-on-Trent, Liverpool and Edinburgh. Tickets to the tour will be available tomorrow, so here's what you need to know.
