Mr and Mrs Pooter have just moved from Peckham to their new home in Holloway, much to the Mrs P's dismay. She tries her best to be “a dutiful wife” and he is the model Victorian husband. But are they, really? English writer Evelyn Waugh once described George and Weedon Grossmith’s novel The Diary of a Nobody as “the funniest book in the world”. The Pooters have gone on to have quite an onward life over the years and have finally landed at Jermyn Street Theatre in an effervescent revival of Keith Waterhouse’s Mr and Mrs Nobody.

Two weeks after announcing Footprints Festival, today Jermyn Street Theatre has unveiled its full programme of 43 shows brought together to celebrate the theatre’s reopening this Summer. Running for three months from May to August this jamboree of live work comprises an exciting combination of familiar faces and new talent.

Following a year without live in-person audiences, Jermyn Street Theatre, winner of the 2021 Stage Award for Fringe Theatre of the Year, will light up again this May as it launches a three month celebration of drama, music, poetry and comedy.  

The infamous Jeffrey Bernard will be returning to where his legacy began as Norman's Coach and Horses Soho stages Jeffrey Bernard is Unwell from May 7th - June 1st, 2019.

A slice of working class life that tickles the funny bone and pulls at the heartstrings, but never quite resolves its structural issues.

Following this, a stage adaptation was created - featuring original TV cast members Jon Pertwee, Una Stubbs and Geoffrey Bayldon - at Birmingham Repertory Theatre over the Christmas period in 1980 and was a resounding hit. It then went on to play at the Cambridge Theatre in London's West End the following festive season, extending until February 1982. This cast recording was made at Abbey Road Studios shortly before their London opening and Stage Door Records are responsible for making it possible to listen to on CD today.
