One Man Two Guvnors Tickets Booking From BmyConcierge
One Man Two Guvnors takes up its third residence in the west end at the Theatre Royal Haymarket following sell out seasons
at both the National Theatre and the Adelphi.
After being fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe, a small time East End villan, 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 pub, the permanently ravenous Francis spots the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a second job with one Stanley Stubbers, who is in hiding from the police and waiting to be re-united with Rachel. To prevent discovery, Francis must keep his two guvnors apart. Simple.

The Theatre Royal Haymarket in London or Haymarket Theatre or the Little Theatre is a west end theatre located in the Haymarket in the City of Westminster which dates back to 1720, making it the third-oldest London playhouse still in use today.
Samuel Foote acquired the lease in 1747, and in 1766 he gained a royal patent to play legitimate drama (meaning spoken drama, as opposed to opera, concerts or plays with music) in the summer months.
The original building was a little further north in the same street but the theatre has been at its current location since 1821, when it was redesigned by John Nash. It is a Grade II listed building and has a seating capacity of 888. The freehold of the theatre is owned by the Crown Estate.
The Theatre Royal Haymarket has been the site of a couple of significant innovations in theatre. In 1873, it was the venue for the first scheduled matinée performance, establishing a custom soon followed in theatres everywhere. Six years later, the auditorium was reconstructed, and the stage was enclosed in the first use of the picture frame proscenium.
Managers of the theatre have included Benjamin Nottingham Webster, John Baldwin Buckstone, Herbert Beerbohm Tree and John Sleeper Clarkewho was the brother of John Wilkes Booth who assasinated Abraham Lincoln
