IDEAL: Starring Johnny Vegas

at The Apex, Bury St Edmunds

Add to your event list

Johnny Vegas stars as Moz, Manchester’s longest serving weed dealer, in a dope opera of epic proportions, starring some of the hit BBC TV comedy’s most iconic characters and actors.

Moz and gangsters Psycho Paul and Cartoon Head must dispose of a dead body. But when they discover priceless diamonds inside the corpse, things spin out of control.

Can Cartoon Head be prevented from going on a killing spree? Can big gay Brian find true love? And can Moz survive the strangest night of his life?

Critically acclaimed and a ratings hit, the multi-award winning BBC sit-com Ideal ran for seven seasons and 53 episodes. Now Moz and friends are back. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the first episode’s broadcast, this new stage show is dark, surreal and hilariously funny.
