WIN VIP tickets to see Maureen Lipman in Allegra
Plus a meet and greet with the cast and a kosher meal for two
National treasure Dame Maureen Lipman stars in the title role of Allegra in a heartwarming new comedy from Olivier and Tony Award nominated playwright Peter Quilter (End of the Rainbow and Glorious!) and directed and choreographed by three-time Olivier Award winner musical theatre director, Stephen Mear (Sunset Boulevard, Mary Poppins, Hello, Dolly!).
Allegra is full of life, joy and an irresistible urge to sing. She bursts into song at home, in the street and even in the local shops and cafés. Sometimes the orchestra plays only in her imagination. Sometimes it spills gloriously into the real world, much to the delight, confusion and occasional horror of everyone around her. Her devoted brother Ronen (John Middleton of Emmerdale) and her carer Anna (Elizabeth Bower of Midsomer Murders) do their best to keep life steady, but how do you protect someone you love without dimming the light that makes them who they are?
Star of stage and screen Dame Maureen Lipman, beloved by millions for her role in Coronation Street and celebrated for her extraordinary career, takes centre stage as Allegra in her eagerly anticipated first UK tour for 20 years.
Packed full of heart, humour and full iconic musical numbers performed by an extraordinary cast, including Singin’ in the Rain, Ain’t No Sunshine, Dream A Little Dream Of Me and Happy Days Are Here Again, Allegra is a tender, hilarious and life-affirming story about family, love and holding on to joy for as long as possible.
