Red Dwarf’s Holly on Tour!

By John Freeman on March 14, 2008

Both incarnations of Red Dwarf computer Holly, Norman Lovett and Hattie Hayridge, are to tour UK theatres in their new stage show Double Header.

The actors will perform comedy stand-up as well as talking about Red Dwarf, celebrating its 20th anniversary of the show, and answering questions from fans.

It’s the first time the pair have embarked on a tour together (although they’re both circuit veterans, and Norman once toured with Chris ‘Rimmer’ Barrie back in the late 1990s), and there are plenty of dates to choose from.

The pair will also be attending 13 conventions in the United States from July through to December. See Official Red Dwarf site for venues and dates.
