THE National Theatre’s award-winning comedy One Man, Two Guvnors is a glorious celebration of British comedy starring Shaun Williamson, Gavin Spokes and Emma Barton.

Fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe. But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead 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.

Simple.

Directed by Nick Hytner and written by Richard Bean, One Man, Two Guvnors is at The Mayflower, Southampton from June 2 to 7.
