Fanny’s Burning

He loved the experience of putting on a new production of his writing in Frinton and so he immediately contacted me after the season to talk about his latest play concerning the last years of the iconic celebrity chef, Fanny Craddock.

Often accompanied by her husband Johnnie and her rather silent assistant Carol – who basically did all the hard work.

We are searching around for the perfect Fanny C – but I feel sure you will enjoy this wonderful nostalgic trip down a cooking memory lane. This will be a World premierThis production takes place at McGrigor Hall, 85 Fourth Ave, Frinton-on-Sea CO13 9EB
