Victoria Wood’s dinnerladies
A brand-new stage adaptation starring stage and TV favourite Les Dennis as maintenance man Stan, with the full cast of dinnerladies to be announced.
More than 25 years after it first aired on BBC One, Victoria Wood’s much-loved sitcom dinnerladies is heading to the stage, in the first piece of Victoria’s work to be produced by her estate.
Featuring a story inspired by the original TV series, the show brings back all the characters audiences know and love from the Manchester canteen.
Originally written by and starring Victoria Wood, dinnerladies became one of Britain’s most adored comedies thanks to its sharp humour, warmth and brilliantly observed characters.
Now, Stan, Bren, Tony, Dolly, Jean, Twinkle, Anita and the rest of the canteen crew are back for a fresh helping of laughs, chaos and classic Victoria Wood comedy.
Whether you’re revisiting an old favourite or discovering it for the first time, dinnerladies serves up a hilarious night out packed with heart, nostalgia and plenty of surprises.
