By Alan Bennett

It’s 1786 and King George III is the most powerful man in the world. But his behaviour is becoming increasingly erratic as he succumbs to fits of lunacy.

Written by one of Britain’s best-loved playwrights Alan Bennett (The History Boys, The Lady in the Van), this epic play was adapted into a BAFTA Award-winning film.

This production features Olivier Award-winners Mark Gatiss (Sherlock, Wolf Hall, NT Live Coriolanus) in the title role, and Adrian Scarborough (Gavin and Stacey, Upstairs Downstairs, After the Dance).

£8.50 UoE Students / £10 Concession / £13 Full. Advance prices. More on the door. For more information or to book tickets, please visit the Lakeside Theatre website.
