Hit play QUIZ comes to The Lowry later this month

Production shots have been released for the national tour of James Graham’s smash hit play Quiz, which comes to The Lowry, Salford from Tuesday 24th to Saturday 28th October 2023

The critically-acclaimed play stars renowned comedian, Rory Bremner, as Chris Tarrant and Charlie Webb (Emmerdale) and Lewis Reeves (I May Destroy You) as Diana and Charles Ingram.

Also featuring Mark Benton (Northern Lights, Waterloo Road) Leo Wringer (Hamlet), Sukh Ojla (Bridgerton) and Marc Antolin (Little Shop Of Horrors)

In a shockingly shameless scam, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire was duped out of £1,000,000. Or was it?

Quiz is the thrilling and entertaining ride through the infamous Coughing Major scandal which engulfed the world’s most popular TV quiz show. The story remains a mystery and had over six million people glued to their screens in 2020 watching the ITV adaptation starring Michael Sheen, Matthew Macfadyen and Sian Clifford.

Now, uncovering new evidence, it’s time to ask you, the audience, to put fingers on keypads and answer the ultimate 50/50: guilty or not guilty?

Nominated for two Olivier Awards including Best New Comedy, James Graham’s smash hit play, Quiz, transferred to London’s West End with sensational reviews in 2018, following a sold-out run at Chichester Festival Theatre.

The play now returns to Chichester Festival Theatre before embarking on a 9-week UK tour from 22 September to 2 December 2023.

Directed by Co-Artistic Director of The Royal Shakespeare Company, Daniel Evans and Seán Linnen with design by Robert Jones, and produced by Jonathan Church Theatre Productions,Wessex Grove and Gavin Kalin Productions, by arrangement with William Village. Lighting by Ryan Day, composition and sound design by Ben and Max Ringham, with video by Tim Reid and casting by Matilda James CDG.
