Poor old Albert Nobbs. It’s the early 2000’s and retirement has not turned out favourably for this curmudgeonly hen-pecked husband. And it’s about to get worse. This is a comedy that reminds you of Victor Meldrew in One Foot In The Grave blended with the ghostly Blithe Spirit.

Expect plenty of laughter and perhaps a few tears as Connie shows us their long married life together… and beyond.

There are good seats available for Saturday but feel free to ask for Thursday or Friday and we also have a cancellation list.

First night is this Thursday 14th of November.

Gordon Steel’s Albert Nobbs was first performed in 2003 at Hull Truck.

Above: a few rehearsal snippets.

Gulp. That’s the feeling we actors get when the realisation dawns that first night is getting close. It’s a mixture of trepidation and excitement. It’s a good thing. Honest. Gulp.

Poor old Albert.

It’s the early 2000s and Albert Nobbs has just retired after a fairly uneventful life and now looking grumpily towards an uneventful retirement being nagged, as he sees it, by his wife Connie. But then who wouldn’t nag the once funny man that has turned into this curmudgeonly moaner.

But Albert’s retirement is to take an unexpected turn with Connie’s untimely death. Albert Nobbs takes a look at their life together and how he might come to terms with her passing with the assistance of the ghostly return of Connie to help him along.

Gordon Steel, who also wrote ‘A Kick in the Baubles’, one of our most popular plays, has once again penned some wonderful characters that will have you laughing out loud and maybe generate the odd tear. It was first performed at Hull Truck in 2003.

Contains adult humour and a wee bit of strong language.

We are looking forward to putting this production on for you and it’s one not to miss.

Book now while seats are still available for our show nights – Thursday, Friday or Saturday 14th to 16th November – nb there are currently more seat choices available for the Saturday.

Directed by Richard Bateman with Barbara Failey as neighbour Alice, Janet Drewery as close friend Rose, Gill Collins as wife Connie and Steve Howland as Albert.
