Two Doors Down Cast Brings Glasgow Laughs Live at the Hydro!

The hit Scottish sitcom 'Two Doors Down' is making an exciting move from television to the stage, with three live performances scheduled at Glasgow's OVO Hydro in September next year. The cast, which includes Arabella Weir, Alex Norton, Elaine C Smith, Doon Mackichan, Jonathan Watson, Graeme 'Grado' Stevely, Joy McAvoy, Jamie Quinn, and Kieran Hodgson, will reunite to bring the beloved Latimer Crescent living rooms to life for their fans. The show first aired as a one-off special in 2013 and quickly became a favorite, leading to seven series and three Christmas specials. Creator Gregor Sharp expressed his excitement, calling the opportunity to bring the show to the stage a 'dream come true. '

The live show will center around the home of Beth and Eric, played by Weir and Norton, and promises to deliver plenty of laughs, unexpected moments, and perhaps even a glass of sherry. Audiences can expect the same quirky neighborly interactions and comedic surprises that have made the show so popular. Gregor Sharp praised the cast, saying they are an incredible group of performers, and he looks forward to welcoming the audience into Beth and Eric's home, where there will be surprises and characters behaving just as fans expect.

'Two Doors Down' is set in a suburban area of Glasgow and has been a staple of BBC Scotland's comedy lineup. The show will return to BBC One in December, marking two years since the last series aired. When it first launched on BBC Two in 2016, it attracted 1. 3 million viewers, and its popularity grew to 2. 8 million viewers for the most recent series on BBC One. The sitcom has received several awards, including the RTS Scotland Award for Best Comedy in both 2017 and 2024, and Bafta Scotland Best Actress awards for Elaine C Smith in 2018 and Doon Mackichan in 2024. The move to live stage performances follows in the footsteps of another well-known Scottish sitcom, 'Still Game,' which also enjoyed successful live shows at the Hydro. Fans of 'Two Doors Down' are eagerly anticipating the chance to see their favorite characters and enjoy the humor in a new, interactive way.
