  • Frankie Goes To Bollywood

    Recurring
    Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

    After a smash-hit UK tour, Frankie Goes To Bollywood returns – bigger, bolder, and bursting with Bollywood glamour. This dazzling musical comedy-drama dives deep into the glitzy, high-pressure world of Indian cinema, where dreams are mass-produced, identities are reshaped, and women are expected to smile and play by the script written for them. At the centre of it all is Frankie, a young British woman with little interest in fame. But her quiet suburban life is turned upside down as she is thrust into a world of dazzling lights, choreographed perfection and media obsession. Frankie must decide: Can she become a star without losing who she really is? What must she give up to succeed in a man’s world – and what is she willing to fight for? With show-stopping choreography, lavish costumes, and a cast of unforgettable characters, Frankie Goes To Bollywood is a bold, uplifting story of ambition, transformation, and the power of telling your own story. Featuring original Bollywood songs by hit composer Harry Anand, this is Rifco Theatre Company’s most ambitious production yet – a celebration of love, identity and courage, packed with joy, drama, and spectacular entertainment. Whether you’re a fan of musicals, Bollywood films, or powerful British stories, this is...

  • The Anglia Comedy Allstars – April 2026

    The Old Savoy - The home of The Deco Theatre Abington Square, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 4AE

    Strictly over 18s only. Please note that the line-up may be subject to change without notice.   The Anglia Comedy Allstars return to The Old Savoy – Home of The Deco Theatre in April 2026, with an amazing line-up featuring the hilarious Milton Jones, Rory Bremner, Fatiha El-Ghorri & Darren Harriott! Milton Jones: Him with the shirts from Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo and Radio 4. Milton reveals the truth about being an international spy, before being given a disappointing new identity which forced him to appear on Mock the Week & Live at the Apollo. Just gloriously daft nonsense or is there a deeper meaning? Every man has his price. Sainsburys, where good food costs less. “No-one can touch Jones when he hits his stride” – The Guardian ————- Rory Bremner is widely regarded as Britain’s top satirical impressionist. As a mimic, he’s provided definitive impersonations of PMs and Presidents from Major to Mandela, Blair to Brown, Clinton to Cameron and Bush to Trump. As himself, he’s been presenter, writer, quiz-show host, actor, translator and even (briefly) ballroom dancer (Strictly). ———— Underneath Taskmaster star Fatiha El-Ghorri’s colourful hijab is a mind full of cutting observations and engaging witticisms on the life and...
