ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS WAR HORSE
THE THREEPENNY OPERA
RUNNING TIME : 3 HOURS
RUNNING TIME: 2HRS 25MINS
RUNNING TIME : 3 HOURS
One Man, Two Guvnors, a play by Richard
Bean, is an English adaptation of Servant of Two
Masters, a 1743 commedia dell’arte-style play
by the Italian playwright Carlo Goldoni. In 1960s
Brighton, a socially naive Francis Henshall
becomes separately employed by two men:
Roscoe Crabbe, a local gangster, and Stanley
Stubbers, an upper class criminal. Francis tries
to keep the two from meeting, in order to avoid
each of them learning that Francis is also
working for someone else.
War Horse takes audiences on an
extraordinary journey from the fields of rural
Devon to the trenches of World War I France.
Filled with stirring music and songs, this
powerfully moving and imaginative drama is a
show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart
are astonishing life-sized puppets by South
Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company, who bring
breathing, galloping, charging horses to thrilling
life on stage.
Disclaimer: suitable for 15 years old and above
due to scenes of a sexual nature, violence and
language.
