One Man, Two Guvnors was a triumph with audiences and critics, across the globe, when it was first performed back in 2011. Now, a brand new production takes to the Liverpool Playhouse stage.

When it was first performed at the National Theatre in 2011, directed by Nicholas Hytner and starring James Cordon, One Man Two Guvnors was a riotous success. Boasting five-star reviews and a wad of awards, it was hailed as ‘one of the funniest productions in the National’s history’ by The Guardian.

With live music and hilarious slapstick, this brand-new production of One Man, Two Guvnors will take to the Liverpool Playhouse stage this summer.

This co-production by Octagon Theatre Bolton, Theatre by the Lake and Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse promises an unmissable night at the theatre.
