This will be the actor’s third time coming to the city having played and sold out at the Preston Playhouse twice before.

Tickets will be £16 per person and all proceeds will go to Partners in Education Swaziland (PIES), a small charity run by volunteers based in and around Preston supporting vulnerable children.
