Notes From A Small Island

Presented by Simon Friend Entertainment
£50 - £27
Leeds Grand Theatre

TV favourite Les Dennis stars in a new tour of hit stage comedy Bill Bryson’s Notes From a Small Island, based on Bill Bryson’s much-loved book.

From Calais to Scotland, Bill travels the length and breadth of Britain. How can the nation that produced Marmite, Gardener’s Question Time and people who say “Ooh lovely” at the sight of a cup of tea, hold such a special place in this American’s heart?

Bill Bryson’s book Notes from a Small Island spent three years in The Sunday Times bestsellers list and sold over two million copies.

Now a hilarious stage adaptation of the book is hitting the stage, celebrating the quirks and foibles of our small island, and featuring an all-star cast including Strictly Come Dancing and Coronation Street favourite Les Dennis playing Bill Bryson.
