One Man Two Guvnors

Thu 4th Jul 2024 to Sat 13th Jul 2024, various times

Fast, frenetic and fiendishly funny: the award-winning West End hit show that originated at the National Theatre with comedian James Corden in the lead role!

Fresh from the success of last year’s production of Calendar Girls, Simon H West returns to direct this quintessentially British tale of disguise and deception. Set in 1960s Brighton, the chaotic but loveable Francis accidentally finds himself working for two guvnors. Now all he has to do, is keep his double employment a secret, earn a few quid, win the heart of Dolly and – most importantly of all – find some lunch.

A perfect escape for anxious times, this terrific production promises a perfect mix of end-of-the-pier slapstick, ‘Carry On’- style bawdiness and Pythonesque absurdity.

Cyflym, gwyllt a hynod ddoniol: dyma sioe lwyddiannus arobryn o’r West End a ddechreuodd yn y National Theatre gyda’r digrifwr James Corden yn y brif ran!

Yn dilyn llwyddiant cynhyrchiad llynedd o Calendar Girls, mae Simon H West yn dychwelyd i gyfarwyddo’r stori nodweddiadol Brydeinig yma am guddwisgo a thwyll.

Wedi’i gosod yn Brighton yn y 1960au, mae Francis yn gymeriad anhrefnus ond annwyl sy’n dechrau gweithio, drwy ddamwain, i ddau guvnor. Nawr y cyfan sy’n rhaid iddo ei wneud yw cadw ei ddwy swydd yn gyfrinach, ennill ychydig o arian, ennill cariad Dolly ac – yn bwysicaf oll – dod o hyd i ginio.

Mae’r cynhyrchiad gwych yma, sy’n ddihangfa berffaith mewn cyfnod pryderus, yn cynnig cymysgedd perffaith o slapstic pen y pier, anwedduster ‘Carry On’ ac abswrdiaeth Monty Python.
