Stepping Out comes to Regent Theatre in Stoke-on-Trent

Sep 16 2009 Ellesmere Port Pioneer

FORMER Coronation Street villain, Brian Capron, teams up with ex-EastEnders sweetheart, Jessie Wallace to star in Richard Harris’ award-winning Stepping Out which comes to the Regent Theatre in Stoke-on-Trent next week.

In a dusty church hall, ex-professional dancer Mavis Turner holds her weekly tap class. Every Thursday, in stumbles her well-intentioned but not overly talented troupe – all brought together to dance as if no-one is watching, and hopefully no-one ever will!

That’s until they’re invited to perform at a charity gala.

Brian Capron, known for his portrayal of the sinister Richard Hillman in Coronation Street, plays the bumbling but lovable Geoffrey, whose mid-life crisis might just bring with it some mid-life reward.

Jessie Wallace, who won the nation’s hearts as the vivacious Kat Slater in EastEnders, stars as the bitingly funny Sylvia.

It can be seen at the Regent from September 22-26. Ring the box office on 0871 297 5454 or visit www.ambassadortickets.com/Regent-Theatre.
