WOS Radio: Bean & cast share Guvnors thoughts at Q&A

| London's West End |

14 June 2012

Last night we returned to the Theatre Royal, Haymarket for our second Whatsonstage.com Outing to One Man, Two Guvnors, the multi-award winning comedy by Richard Bean that has caused a sensation of both sides of the Atlantic.

After the show we were joined by Bean and the principal cast members Jodie Prenger, Gemma Whelan, Owain Arthur and Martin
Barrass for a lively Q&A, which you can listen to below…

The play, adapted from Goldoni’s A Servant of Two Masters, sees Francis Henshall become minder to the notorious London gangster Roscoe
Crabbe.

But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead twin brother
– who’s been killed by her boyfriend Stanley Stubbers. Francis spots
the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a job with one Stanley
Stubbers – but to prevent discovery, he must keep his two guvnors apart.
How hard could it be?!

Owain Arthur plays Henshall – the role created by Whatsonstage.com and Tony Award-winner James Corden – and is joined in the cast by Jodie Prenger, Hannah Spearritt, Gemma Whelan, Martin
Barrass, David Benson, Nigel Betts, Derek Elroy, Gerard Horan,
Daniel Ings, Matthew Woodyatt and Ben Mansfield.
