Norwich Theatre has added to its 2022 line-up including a one-man show from Dame Edna star Barry Humphries and the stage show of a popular film.

2022 also will play host to an intimate evening with Barry Humphries in The Man Behind the Mask.

This show sees the star peel off his Dame Edna mask to introduce the man behind the clown in a confessional evening seasoned with highly personal, sometimes startling, and occasionally outrageous stories.

The show runs for one night only on May 15 at the Norwich Theatre Royal.
