The UK tour of David Walliams’ 'Gangsta Granny' by Birmingham Stage Company is looking to find the character of Diane for performances at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre from Wednesday 22nd March 2017.

Applicants must be above compulsory school age and fit the look of the character description – Diane is 11 years old and around 5'4'' in height. The character has a small solo disco dance in the middle of the show and is part of the finale dance.
