The New Theatre has today announced six exciting new shows coming to Cardiff. A mix of drama, comedy, dance and high energy musicals means that 2014 is shaping up to be a great year at the popular city centre venue.

Starring Susan Penhaligan (A Fine Romance) and Oliver Mellor (Coronation Street) the play captures the laughter, joy and magic of the original novels and will transport audiences back to a simpler time on the Yorkshire moors. National treasure Dawn French stars in 30 Million Minutes, which will be stopping off in Cardiff from Wednesday 16 – Friday 18 July.
