NT Encore – One Man Two Govnors (12A)

The hilarious West End and Broadway hit, One Man,Two Govnors, returns to cinemas to mark National Theatre Live’s 10th Birthday. Written and Directed by Richard Bean, starring the award winning performance by James Corden.

Fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe, a small time East End hood, now in Brighton to collect £6,000 from his fiancee’s dad.  But Roscoe is really his sister Rachel posing as her own dead brother, who’s been killed by her boyfriend Stanley Stubbers.

Holed up at The Cricketers’ Arms, the permanently ravenous Francis spots the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a second job with one Stanley Stubbers, who is hiding from the police and waiting to be re-united with Rachel.  To prevent discovery, Francis must  keep his two govnors apart.  Simple.     (3hr 30min)
