THE multi award-winning West End show, Jerry Springer - The Opera arrives at The Bristol Hippodrome from May 15-20 as part of its 23-week national tour.

Rolf Saxon (Saving Private Ryan, Mission Impossible & Entrapment) plays the role of Jerry Springer and is joined by many members of the original West End cast.

Following in the footsteps of David Soul (Starksy & Hutch) and Michael Brandon (Dempsey & Makepeace), who both played the role during the show's London run, Saxon will bring the infamous US chat show host to life on stage in an operatic story which takes much of its pathos and humour from the tv show format.
