A WELL-known pantomime villain will return to the stage in a self-penned comedy thriller next weekend (Saturday, April13).

Neil Armstrong, who has played the villain in five pantomimes at the Gala Theatre, in Durham, will return to the venue for ‘Remember Jim?’.

The show, written by Mr Armstrong, tells the story of an actor appearing in pantomime at a provincial theatre, whose life is turned upside down by the reappearance of an old acquaintance.

It also features Peter Peverley, best known for his one-man show The Little Waster.

‘Remember Jim?’ is at the Gala Theatre on Saturday, April 13, at 7.30pm. Tickets are available for £8, by quoting ‘Jim8’. To book, visit the theatre or call 03000-266-600.
