EVERYTHING from Shakespeare to Bridget Jones's Diary is on the programme for the spring-summer season at Tewkesbury's Roses Theatre.

The Sun Street venue is playing host to a wide variety of music, drama and film over the next three months.

Productions by visiting theatre companies include Marivaux's The Game of Love and Chance, Strindberg's Miss Julie, Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and an adaptation of D H Lawrence's Sons and Lovers.

On a lighter note, there is a family musical presentation of The Jungle Book and an evening of mystery and suspense with The Business of Murder.

Cwmni Ballet Gwent are bringing their fresh new production of Romeo and Juliet to town, while Opera Box is putting on Mozart's sublime Marriage of Figaro.

One of the musical highlights of the season is RAM, the house band of Haiti's legendary Oloffsen Hotel, bringing their electrifying voodoo rock to Tewkesbury.

Also on the agenda are the celebrated Alan Price, roots music duo Show of Hands, Elton John tribute performer Dieter Graham and songwriter Raymond Froggatt.

The Pasadena Roof Orchestra will be making life go with a swing and comediennes Jenny Eclair and Sheila Steafel will provide plenty of chuckles.

The Roses also provides a showcase for local talent: the Manor Players of Tewkesbury are staging The King and I and Tewkesbury Town Band will put on their own Last Night of the Proms.

Movies at the Roses include major Hollywood productions such as Hannibal and Enemy at the Gates, foreign films such as The Road Home, plus award-winners such as Traffic, Billy Elliot and Erin Brockovich.
