ERIC and Little Ern promises to bring back warm memories of a bygone era.

Created and performed by Ian Ashpitel and Jonty Stephens, the affectionate, moving and fantastically funny show will recreate some of the finest moments of comedy double act Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise’s television and stage performances.

Cherished moments from the archives will sit alongside new material created by the performers.

The tour follows an acclaimed West End run, for which the show received an Olivier Award nomination for Best Entertainment.

This newly extended version, which will open at the Wyvern Theatre on Wednesday, November 19, will feature favourites including the original Grieg Piano Concerto sketch and Eric’s take on Shakespeare.

The show will start at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £20.50. To book call 01793 524481 or visit swindontheatres.co.uk.
