Promising a show packed with hilarity, Nick Newman and Ian Hislop’s brand-new comedy play Spike is set to take to Cheltenham’s Everyman Theatre stage, in September 2022.

Audiences in Cheltenham will be transported back to the fifties from Tuesday 7 to Saturday 10 September 2022, as families across Britain race to their radios to listen to the latest instalment of the BBC Home Services ‘The Goon Show’.

Offering insight into the unique and satiric mind of Spike, the stage show follows characters Harry Secombe and Peter Sellers as they attempt to hit the big time – with their fellow Goon and leading man aggravating the BBC and pushing the boundaries for entertainment.

But will Spike’s fascination with funniness be a hinderance, rather than leading the group to success?

What’s more, guests will also have the special opportunity to take part in a post-show Q&A with both Ian Hislop and Nick Newman, following the performance on Wednesday 7 September 2022.
