AN ACTOR known for his role in Coronation Street and The Bill will be performing in Ulverston in a one-man play.

Andrew Lancel will star as an English teacher on a journey in a bittersweet comedy from award-winning writer Jonathan Harvey.

The play is set in 1997 Liverpool, where in the staff room, gay, forty-something, English teacher Dave Titswell finds that that not all change is welcome. He has a crush, but life, love, and work are never straight forward.

Will a school trip to The Lakes change things for the better, or make things decidedly worse? Swan Song will make you laugh, but equally pull at the heartstrings.

Fresh from its sell-out premiere at Liverpool Theatre Festival and Northern tour this highly acclaimed show from multi award-winning writer Jonathan Harvey and BAFTA award-winning director Noreen Kershaw comes to Ulverston for two nights only, ahead of its London run.

The show will take place at The Coro on November 19-20.
