Voice-over artists assemble! Full cast for the Spitting Image Musical announced.
Updated on 16 May 2023
Proving that there are many strings to their bow (or should that be to their marionette), it was previously announced that co-writers and stand-up superstars Al Murray (The Pub Landlord) and Matt Forde (The Political Party) would also be providing voice-over work for Idiots Assemble: Spitting Image The Musical.
However, with over 100 puppets demanding that their voices be heard (and provided), they were always going to need a little help. Thankfully for the two comics, the full cast of voice-over artists and puppeteers has recently been confirmed. Opening on the 24 May and running for 16 weeks only, tickets for Idiots Assemble are available to book today!

About Idiots Assemble: Spitting Image The Musical
King Charles hasn't had the crown for long, but already he's been tasked with an impossible mission; to create the UK’s very own ‘Magnificent Seven,’ in order to save the nation from dark forces who seek to destroy his empire. So he does what anyone else would do: he calls Tom Cruise, Greta Thunberg, Meghan Markle, Tyson Fury, RuPaul, Angela Rayner, and Idris Elba - obviously!
Will Tiny Tom and his gang of handheld heroes defeat everyone’s favourite villains? We can’t tell you, but we can confirm that there will be buckets of singing, masses of dancing and absolutely no respect paid to anyone.
