‘Allo ‘Allo!
Hebden Bridge Little Theatre Holme Street, Hebden BridgeBy Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft, directed by Rachel Peter Adapted from the long-running, popular TV series, ‘Allo ‘Allo! centres around René Artois the cowardly cafe-owner with an eye for the ladies, who gets caught up in the madcap escapades of the French Resistance, whilst all the time trying desperately to ingratiate himself with the occupying German forces. The stage adaptation features the familiar running gags, and all your favourite characters, such as René's tone-deaf wife Edith, Major-General von Klinkerhoffen and the Gestapo officer Herr Flick. ‘Allo ‘Allo! is broad comedy, with elements of farce, physical comedy, visual gags, ridiculous fake accents, and a large amount of sexual innuendo. What’s not to like?!

The 39 Steps
Hebden Bridge Little Theatre Holme Street, Hebden BridgeBy Patrick Barlow, directed by Ray Riches Winner of the Olivier Award for Best Comedy, in 2007, Patrick Barlow’s play is based on the Buchan novel and Hitchcock film, about adventurer Richard Hannay, who is forced to go on the run from an international spy ring, at the outbreak of the First World War. In this spoof version, all the characters are played by four actors, who portray between 100 and 150 roles, even doubling parts within the same scene. These quick changes are achieved by cunning use of props and costume, contributing to the general hilarity. Further humour comes from the ingenious use of props – to represent trains and planes on stage, in a variety of unexpected ways!
