The Birmingham Stage Company has announced that the world première of David Walliams' Awful Auntie, published by HarperCollins Children's Books, will open at The Capitol in Horsham on Thursday September 21 and run until Sunday September 24 prior to an 18-month UK tour.

It follows the BSC’s record-breaking tour of David Walliams’ Gangsta Granny which recently finished a sell-out fifty-week tour of the UK.

This show will begin a new tour from February 15 and returns to The Capitol on March 16 before it transfers to the West End for a summer season at The Garrick.

David Walliams said today: “The Birmingham Stage Company’s Gangsta Granny is truly brilliant, so I’m hugely excited that they’re now bringing Awful Auntie to the stage.
