Simon Callow, star of Four Weddings and a Funeral, Shakespeare in Love and Howard's End, will have the lead role in a new adaptation of the hit French play Le Mardi à Monoprix.
Callow, who won rave reviews playing William Shakespeare at last year's Fringe, will play a "loving daughter, carer and ->-bleeped-<-" in Tuesday at Tesco's, which is being staged as part of the Assembly programme this August.
