Yorkshire, 1769. Money, gin and a very tempting life of crime!

Forget your traditional period drama – The Highwayman is a thrilling, darkly comic romantic adventure with more swagger than you can shake a stick at!

From acclaimed writer John Godber (Bouncers, Do I Love You?), and performed by the John Godber Company, this tale of ambition, gambling, social climbing and highway robbery proves that some things never change…

Back by popular demand after its premiere at the Georgian Theatre Royal in 2024, this acclaimed production returns to our stage for three performances only.

📅 Friday 30 October, 7.30pm
📅 Saturday 31 October, 2pm & 7.30pm

Nominated for two 2025 BroadwayWorld UK Awards, The Highwayman promises a gloriously entertaining ride.

RADS are getting ready for The Cavern!

Rehearsals are well underway for the upcoming Richmond Amateur Dramatic Society production of Jean Anouilh’s wonderfully unconventional comic drama.

Who killed the Cook? The Police Chief wants answers, the gentry would rather avoid a scandal, and the servants aren’t giving anything away! Meanwhile, the Author is struggling to keep control of a play that seems to have a mind of its own…

Expect mystery, mischief and plenty of twists as reality and illusion collide.

Running 5–7 November at the Georgian Theatre Royal.

Book your tickets now for a thoroughly entertaining night at the theatre!
