Mrs Brown will 'ride again' in Hull later this year as part of a tenth anniversary live tour.
The raucous and hilarious show will be performed at Hull's Bonus Arena on Friday, October 27 and Saturday, October 28, with two evening performances and a matinee on the Saturday. Written by and starring Brendan O’Carroll as the beloved “Mammy”, the classic Mrs Brown Rides Again follows Agnes Brown and her dysfunctional family as they romp their way through what seems to be the Mammy’s last days at home.
After hearing a plot by her children to have her put into a home, Agnes decides to prove them wrong by displaying a new lease of life. However, this is not going to be as easy as it seems as, along the way, she must deal with a psychiatrist trying to put her in her place, her neighbours wait for a heart bypass, and worst of all, a family secret that everyone seems to know except her.
The new live tour follows the news that Mrs Brown’s Boys is set to return to BBC One and BBC iPlayer for a new mini-series. A regular feature of Christmas schedules for more than a decade, this marks the first mini-series run since 2013 with four new episodes set to delight fans which will air later this year.
Mrs Brown’s Boys' success has been nothing short of incredible. Voted the number one sitcom of the 21st Century, awards include five BAFTAs, four National Television Awards, three TV Choice Awards, four IFTA awards, three TV Times Awards, as well as RTS, TRIC and National Comedy Awards.
BBC One series All Round To Mrs Brown’s continues to achieve record-breaking viewing figures and Mrs Brown’s Boys Christmas Day and New Year’s Day TV specials also returned for the festive period, dominating ratings once again. Live, Mrs Brown’s Boys has broken box office records across the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and Canada.
On the new tour, Brendan O Carroll said: “The Pandemic is gone, and Mrs Brown is back. It doesn’t get any better.”
Mrs Brown's Boys will be heading to Hull's Bonus Arena on Friday, October 27 and Saturday, October 28. You can find out more and book your tickets here.
