Famous musicians, award-winning comedians and theatrical productions for all tastes and ages are being shown at the Gala Theatre this autumn.

The varied programme has been released this week, featuring Madness frontman Suggs, Marcus Bridstocke, Pete Firman, the Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers and the Gala’s own production, TWO.

The season also sees the start of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, this year’s pantomime, a production of My Mother Said I Never Should and Ventoux, a play telling the story of Lance Armstrong and Marco Pantani’s drug-fuelled race on Mont Ventoux in the 2000 Tour de France.
