Theatre Programmes

The cast of Dad's Army were professionally trained actors and all had tread the boards of the theatre at one time or another in their career. Theatrical programmes from the years prior to their TV appearances are now quite collectable as these form a vital key to their performances on stage.

This section includes details of such programmes and will be constantly updated. There is also information on the 1976 Dad's Army Stage Show Programme featuring most cast members.
