Alexandra Coke, producing the show for the Old Fire Station, said today, "We are delighted to welcome Ellen back to the OFS, after her appearances in Snowflake in 2019, and last year's filmed show An Intervention. Ellen is a great comedian and a fantastic actress - you can see a pilot for her show Britney, along with her comedy partner Charly Clive on BBC iPlayer. We can't wait to work with her again, and we'd like to thank her for stepping in so close to opening night."
The Old Fire Station is a pioneering partnership between a professional arts centre and homeless charity Crisis.
