The Full Monty - The Play by Simon Beaufoy
Mon 17 May - Sat 22 May 2027
Why go and see it?
SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO BARE EVERYTHING!
As in the 1997 smash hit film, this brand-new production is a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs,
laughs and heartbreak. Celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the film on a major national tour.
Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the iconic film, The Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham And Buxton Opera House in association with Mark Goucher And David Pugh Present The Full Monty. Back by popular demand, the boys are returning with a major national tour!
There are no heroes in Simon Beaufoy’s heartfelt play, just a group of lads trying to regain their dignity and pride. This fast and funny play is still very much of our time, as again we are hit by a cost-of-living crisis. Gaz and his mates are down on their luck and feel they have been thrown on the scrap heap, but they are determined to fight back and bare a little more than they ever thought they would have to.

Vesta Tilley laid the foundation stone of what is now the Sunderland Empire on 29 September 1906 and took to the stage on 1 July 1907 to officially declare the theatre open. Masterminded by two of the contemporary heads of British theatre, Edward Moss and Oswald Stoll, the Sunderland Empire Theatre has undergone many changes since it opened but remains the North East’s premier entertainment venue.
