NEW VIC FAVOURITE STAGES A HEIST WITH ERIC’S ITALIAN JOB

This summer New Vic regular Eric gets embroiled in a comedy crime caper as sensational 60s musical Eric’s Italian Job takes to the New Vic stage from Monday 21 August to Saturday 2 September 2023.

Eric, having finally got a booking for his disco in Leighton Buzzard, witnesses the Great Train Robbery when his van breaks down as he’s starting for home. Scotland Yard get a tip-off that the two train robbers who escaped capture are planning a bank job in Turin and take Eric with them to identify the two men.

With an inept police officer and Eric in pursuit of the criminals just about everything that’s possible to go wrong does so.

Real-life Minis racing up and down steps, a bus hanging off the edge of a mountain, incredible Alpine scenery – none of this is in the production but the show is packed full of great 60s hits and a lot of laughs which, let’s face it, is a fair swap!

It’d be a crime to miss it!

Eric’s Italian Job takes to the stage at the New Vic from Monday 21 August to Saturday 2 September 2023. Tickets are on sale now, priced from £23.00-£29.50. For more information and to book call the Box Office on 01782 717 962 or online at newvictheatre.org.uk.
