Andrew Lloyd Webber’s record‑breaking 2015 Olivier
award nominated musical Cats returns to Eastbourne
following its sell-out run at the London Palladium.
Adapted from TS Eliot’s ‘Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats’,
this “groundbreaking musical” (Daily Express) comes together in a
sparkling fusion of music, dance and verse, and has now taken on
a new life for a new generation.
On just one special night of the year, all Jellicle cats meet at the
Jellicle Ball where Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent
leader, makes the Jellicle choice and announces which of them will go
up to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life.
With “timeless music, spectacular sets and a superb cast”
(Daily Mirror), breathtaking choreography and of course the
unforgettable Memory, Cats is a magical musical like no other.
Let Cats thrill you once again, but don't miss out on a seat act fast and book your tickets today!

They were working-class free spirits who rode sexy streamlined Italian

The Small Faces encapsulated all that is Mod, a unique blend of taste

cult sophisticates shared another passion, their dedication to Rhythm
‘n’ Blues. All Or Nothing is a ‘Mod’ Musical celebrating the unique
sound of iconic Mod band, The Small Faces.

Love Is All Around is a feminist publishing house where Harriet
Copeland is running a competition to find new romantic fiction
written by women only. Leonard Loftus is trying to get his book
published, but Harriet keeps sending his manuscripts back because
they are the work of a man!
When Leonard finally sends a manuscript using the female
pseudonym “Myrtle Banbury”, Harriet is impressed. She finds the
writing superb and insists on meeting Myrtle so she can hand over
the prize money and get Myrtle’s signature on a contract. There’s
only one thing for it, Leonard must carry on the pretence that Myrtle
exists, by dressing up as a woman and pretending that he is his own
fictitious aunt. With Leonard’s teenage daughter, Dee Dee, and his
father, Gus playing along deception and tomfoolery ensue with
hilarious consequences!

Kensington Palace, 1993. She was the Diana of
her day. That day has gone. But HRH The Princess
Margaret, the most glamorous figure of her
generation, has one final chance to be of service.
While the Royal Family is at Balmoral, she removes several
bags of correspondence from the Queen Mother’s home,
including potentially sensational letters from Prince Charles –
and Diana, Princess of Wales. She means to burn them all.
But there are other papers, relating to Margaret herself, and an older
scandal… When an ex‑gangster arrives to bring her even closer to her past,
the Queen’s sister has the choice to make or break her family yet again.
Stephanie Beacham, world‑famous and acclaimed for her
work on television (The Colbys, Dynasty, Bad Girls), film and
stage, returns to the theatre to create the role of Princess
Margaret, as iconic as anything she has played before.
With a star cast including Jason Merrells (Emmerdale, Waterloo
Road) as ex‑gangster John Bindon, and an award‑winning
creative team, A Princess Undone – inspired by actual events
– is one of the most riveting new plays of the year.

and Elspeth: a tale of love, honour, loyalty ‑ and revenge.

RAFFLES
THE MYSTERY OF THE
MURDERED THIEF
A sparkling whodunit based on the thrilling
classics by E W Hornung.
Harry “Bunny” Manders is convinced that his erstwhile partner in
crime, the gentleman cracksman A.J. Raffles, drowned while
escaping a daring theft aboard a transatlantic liner. But a chance
reply to a newspaper advertisement reveals an entirely different
scenario, and at once Bunny is embroiled again in his old life of
burglary, mayhem, adventure and murder!
Bunny is played by Ian Sharrock, hugely familiar to audiences from
his ten years as Jackie Merrick in Emmerdale, while his other TV
appearances include Heartbeat, The Bill, Casualty, Where The Heart
Is and, perhaps most memorably, as Jed Maxwell, Alan Partridge’s
biggest and most scarily obsessive fan in I’m Alan Partridge.
From the company behind Father Brown ‑ The Curse of the
Invisible Man, Raffles ‑ The Mystery of the Murdered Thief
promises more of the same.
