“It’s a great night of live entertainment, a trip down memory lane and a feast of fun for everyone.” Newbury Weekly News

Moist von Lipwig is a con artist, a fraud, and a man faced with a life choice: be hanged, or put Ankh-Morpork's ailing postal service back on its feet. Assisted by Stanley the pin collector, Junior Postman Groat and a golem who has been at the bottom of a hole in the ground for 200 years, he has to see the mail gets through, avoid the plot to kill him and defeat the evil Chairman of the Grand Truck Semaphore Company. Getting a date with Adora Bell Dearheart would be nice, too...

Looking for some entertainment to cheer you up in these dark January days and take your mind off the weather? Then look no further than Progress Theatre's production of Terry Pratchett's Going Postal which runs from 28th January to 6th February.

With a cast of 23 bringing nearly 40 of Pratchett's fabulous characters to life on the Progress stage, this is a very funny, very entertaining production suitable for all the family. Brought to you by the same team who staged the highly successful production of Mort some years ago, Going Postal will delight newcomers to Pratchett as well as his faithful fans.

The story cracks along with plenty of humour on an imaginatively designed set populated by a plethora of colourful characters - good, evil and somewhere in between - as well as a handful of wizards, a smattering of golems, a couple of mad roof dwellers, a mysterious assassin and a cockatoo.

You might even spot one or two Pratchett characters from some of his other books if you keep your eyes open....
