Corrie! Is a brand new play specially commissioned by ITV to celebrate Britain's longest-running and most-loved soap. It had its UK premiere at the Lowry, Salford in 2010, where it opened to rave reviews and sell-out audiences, and is now on a major UK tour.
"BRILLIANT! HAS THE AUDIENCE ROLLING DOWN THE COBBLES IN LAUGHTER" Daily Express
This is your chance to relive those magic moments from 'the Street' -hear the recent ominous rumbling of a runaway tram coming over the viaduct, watch Tracy kill Charlie, see Alan Bradley meet a gruesome end, Todd kiss Nick and Gail marry Brian, Martin, Richard and Joe! A magnificent (and hardworking) cast of 6 actors play all 55 characters (!) and are hilariously supported by a genuine Corrie! guest star at every performance. Street legends stepping on to the theatrical cobbles include Gaynor Faye, Roy Barraclough and Ken Morley.
