Not seen in London since the National Theatre’s hit production over 25 years ago, A Chorus of Disapproval aims to steal the limelight once more in the West End. Making his West End theatre debut, Rob Brydon stars alongside Nigel Harman (Shrek, EastEnders) and Ashley Jensen (Extras, Ugly Betty) in Alan Ayckbourn ’s riotous comedy A Chorus of Disapproval , directed by Olivier and Tony award-winner Trevor Nunn .
