The Dukes screens Corden’s comedy capers
A classic comedy play starring James Corden which has been receiving rave reviews will be screened live at The Dukes on September 15.
Tickets are selling fast for the latest National Theatre Live satellite screening at the Lancaster cinema.
One Man, Two Guvnors is Richard Bean’s English version of Carlo Goldoni’s classic comedy, The Servant of Two Masters.
Sex, food and money are high on the agenda as Francis Henshall(Corden) becomes minder to a small time East End hood.
Described as ‘a triumph of visual and verbal comedy’, this play sees James Corden return to the National for the first time since Alan Bennett’s The History Boys.
NT Live is an exciting initiative that broadcasts live performances of National Theatre plays onto cinema screens worldwide.
The Dukes has been screening NT Live since it began and all performances have proved very popular so advance booking is recommended.
Tickets cost £13/£12(concessions) and can be booked at The Dukes Box Office on 01524 598500 or online at www.dukes-lancaster.org.
If you can’t get along to see One Man, Two Guvnors on September 15, The Dukes is planning a recorded version on September 25. Details of this are still to be confirmed so check The Dukes website www.dukes-lancaster.org for updates.
Editor’s Notes
The Dukes will also be screening NT Live’s The Kitchen on Thursday, October 6. Arnold Wesker’s blackly funny and furious examination of life lived at breakneck speed was premiered at the Royal Court in 1959.
