LEICESTER SQUARE THEATRE
Tues 25 Nov " Sat 20 Dec
Bucking the recessionary trend that has enveloped the City of late Alex has been upgraded to the larger, more luxurious and freshly refurbished Leicester Square Theatre, which boasts not only the most comfortable seats in the West End but also its most abundant lavatorial facilities.
Celebrated stage and screen actor Robert Bathurst (Cold Feet, Whipping it Up) returns once again to bring Britain's favorite cartoon City-slicker to three-dimensional life.
With the economy in freefall and the credit crunch biting down hard on financial dinosaurs like ALEX, is it time to get out of the square mile? And if so how on earth will Alex cope outside his natural habitat?? All the regular characters from the cartoon strip are here: his timid and inept sidekick Clive, long-suffering wife Penny, abrasive boss Rupert, stroppy client Mr Hardcastle, as well as graduate trainees, lap dancers, bibulous journalists, freeloading industrialists and all the other fringe characters of City life.
A smash-hit last year in London's West End and internationally in Australia, Singapore and Hong Kong, award-winning director Phelim McDermott (Shockheaded Peter, Improbable Theatre) comes together with a top-class design team to bring to life ingenious animations from the pen of Charles Peattie in what the critics agree is a hilarious night out for theatregoers and a must-see for fans of the cartoon.
