First Glimpse Of Rehearsals For Bang Bang! at Wolverhampton Grand

Wolverhampton Grand has released rehearsal photos for Bang Bang! - a brand new comedy by John Cleese which arrives at the theatre from Tuesday 12th May.

The production stars Tessa Peake-Jones, Tony Gardner and Wendi Peters.

John Cleese makes his stage writing debut with a hilarious new adaptation of this classic comedy – a delicious blend of French Farce and Fawlty Towers and based on Monsier Chasse by Georges Feydeau.

When Leontine, a respectable society lady, discovers that she’s been hoodwinked by her husband, Duchotel, who’s always pretending to go hunting but really chasing after other ‘prey’.

She vows to take revenge on the philanderer, but while Duchotel’s away, his lifelong friend comes calling – and he’s on the hunt too.

Tessa Peake-Jones became a household name with her role as Raquel in the iconic comedy Only Fools and Horses. Her extensive stage work encompasses the National Theatre and RSC, recent credits include The Winslow Boy and Shirley Valentine.

Tony Gardner first made his name in comedy as part of the award-winning comedy duo Struck off and Die. Since then he has appeared on TV in roles ranging from the My Parents are Aliens to Last Tango in Halifax and on stage in Alan Ayckbourn’s classic Bedroom Farce.

Wendi Peters is most widely known for her role as Cilla Battersby in Coronation Street has just finished appearing in the West End smash-hit musical BIG at the Dominion Theatre.
