“Australia was feckin amazing, who knew we would enjoy the experience of being down under so much! When over a quarter of a million Australians came to see us we thought ‘that’s nice, we will have to come back again’.

“And you know there are a lot of places I haven’t been, and I’m dying to see, and people said I should go to New Zealand … so I’m going to New Zealand.”

The Mrs. Brown phenomenon has clocked up millions of DVD sales worldwide with the show picking up multiple UK television awards including Scottish, Irish and British BAFTAS and People’s Choice awards.  In New Zealand more than 500,000 people watch each amazing episode of Mrs. Brown’s Boys on TV One.

The show has been a huge hit both on stage and on TV.  In the UK the TV series regularly captures eight million viewers per episode. The double episode Christmas special kicked off the launch of series three with a record 15.3 million UK viewers.

Good Mourning Mrs. Brown is the second play in the Mrs. Brown Trilogy of five! The audience will relive some of their favourite moments from the hit TV series live on stage.
