03 Sep Essex star Stevi Ritchie set to make musical debut alongside Stacey McClean
by Dan Bryans
Stevi Ritchie is set to make his musical debut alongside Stacey Franks (McClean) in Musical Comedy The Sword And The Dope at Waterloo East Theatre this September.
The Sword and the dope is a musical comedy hailed as ‘Monty Phyton meets Blackadder’ Ham and high (a review the show has never lived up to!) with ’as many laughs from the stalls as any show I can recall’ Broadway World, ‘Old fashioned British humour at it’s best’ Greenwich Mercury and ‘Some great big show numbers’ Southwark news
Now back for a fourth run this time the show has gone political-ish. With referendums and snap elections it seemed like a good time to revive the show and give it a slight political theme.
Being tongue in cheek and poking fun at itself the show would never want to make a political stance or try and change the world, the only aim is to make people laugh, smile and have ’a rollicking fun and entertaining night out’ Remote Goat and be ‘A great way to spend a couple of hours’ Greenwich Mercury
With Brexit looming and all the austerity about it seems as good a reason as any to put on a show.
Fancy popping in?
