Kicking off the autumn season on Monday 10 September 2012 will be Alan Ayckbourn comedy Relatively Speaking, running until Saturday 15 September 2012 – starring stage veteran Felicity Kendal and _Hornblower_’s Jonathan Coy alongside _Eastenders_’ actress and Strictly Come Dancing winner Kara Tointon.

Star of the big screen, stage and television Timothy West will star alongside Caroline Langrishe and regular on British television dramas, Adrian Lukis.
Tom Kempinski’s hard-hitting Duet For One will follow, from Monday 24 to Saturday 29 September 2012, and hopes to draw in the crowds with a cast including BBC drama favourite Haydn Gwynne and William Gaunt, who has been delighting stage and television audiences for almost three decades.
And last but by no means least will be the hilarious Keith Waterhouse comedy Good Grief starring one of the nation’s sweethearts, Penelope Keith, known to millions for her roles in The Good Life and To the Manor Born. This will round up the autumn season and run from Monday 22 to Saturday 27 October 2012.
