After a sell-out premiere at Live Theatre in 2021, Redcoat returns for a UK tour across the North of England and Scotland this autumn.

It opens at Exchange Theatre, North Shields October 21.

Audiences meet Lewis, a Redcoat living the dream and living it large in Bognor Regis. But what happens when you’re having an ‘off day’?

Written and performed by Lewis Jobson and directed and co-created by Melanie Rashbrooke, it’s loosely inspired by Lewis’s real-life experience as a holiday camp entertainer, a coming-of-adult story about discovering who you really want to be.

Due to strong language and adult themes, Redcoat is for anyone 14+. The show is 75-minute with no interval.

It tours to Kingston upon Hull, Alnwick, Saltburn, Edinburgh and Washington.
