Three of Britain’s best-loved stars, EastEnders’s Cheryl Fergison, original girl power group legend Maureen Nolan and Casualty’s Rebecca Wheatley, will soon be arriving at the Marina Theatre to star in Menopause The Musical.

The hysterical show packed full of one-liners about night sweats, hot flushes and memory loss is backed by an instantly recognisable soundtrack of innuendo-laden versions of 60s, 70s and 80s pop classics.

An all-singing, all-dancing comedy set in a department store, where four women with seemingly nothing in common, meet by chance and make fun of their woeful lives experiencing “The Change”.

The hysterical and uplifting show, which also stars Ruth Berkeley as Penny Dreadful, will have you laughing, and singing, all the way home when it takes place on Friday, February 24.

This is Cheryl Fergison’s second tour with Menopause The Musical and for her the timing couldn’t be better.

“This show simply had to be made,” she explained. “It tells you it’s okay to talk about the subject and I’m delighted because I’m going through the menopause myself at the moment. You see, until you do you have no idea it’s such a big thing.”

Maureen Nolan added: “What’s really great about this show is that women come up to you and say ‘Thank you for making it okay to be over fifty.’ And it doesn’t make light of the menopause, rather it shows you can tackle the raging hot sweats with humour and honesty. I certainly don’t mind anyone knowing I have to have fans in my dressing room, even when it’s cold.”

Tickets are priced at £25, with a £2 discount for concessions.

A popular television star has described how a brand new comedy play at the Marina Theatre will ensure audiences leave with the “feel good factor”.

Crissy Rock is best known for her appearances in ITV shows Benidorm and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here. And now, alongside close friend Leah Bell, she has written and will star in the new play Seriously Dead – at the Marina Theatre on Wednesday, February 1, at 7:30pm.

From the people that brought you Dirty Dusting, the new play considers an ordinary day in the quiet little town of Olwinskirk. But then, a chain of extraordinary events began to take place bringing the lives of Betty, Albert, Billy and the local undertaker, Tristan de Winter, to an uncomfortable crossroads.

Crissy said: “The idea just evolved while Leah Bell and I were touring in Dirty Dusting – talking while driving to the next theatre and making up wild stories. Although we were discussing it for two years, we actually wrote it in four months. I have visited Lowestoft with Dirty Dusting and although only there briefly, I had a smashing windswept walk along the marina. People should come along and shake off the January blues with comedy that will leave you laughing at life (and death) – we make sure that the audience goes away with the feel good factor!”

The production also stars former Emmerdale and Doctor Who actor Frazer Hines, with the original music from Mike Redway.

“When I got the script – I couldn’t wait to do it as it is something so different to anything I have done before,” Frazer explained.

“The audience will get laughs, pathos, and a big finish!”

Full price tickets: £21, Concessions: £20.
