There is plenty to get involved with this weekend, whether that be celebrating Easter with the family, or perhaps volunteering at the CWNE 24 Peterhead Lido beach clean.

The Full Monty

The Full Monty cast is taking to His Majesty’s Theatre this week in celebration of 25 years since the original film while on their huge UK tour.

The play follows a group of depressed, unemployed men who form unlikely friendships through a strip group idea to raise money.

Danny Hatchard, best known for playing Lee Carter in Eastenders, and Jake Quickenden who came to fame through his X Factor audition, are among some of the cast members you could see this weekend! To book tickets, go to aberdeenperformingarts.com
