Brighton, England. 1963. Change is in the air, and Francis Henshall is
looking to make his mark. Fired from a skiffle band and in search of work,
he finds himself employed by small-time gangster Roscoe Crabbe. But Roscoe
is really Rachel, posing as her own dead brother, herself in love with
Stanley Stubbers who, in turn, becomes our hero’s other 'guvnor'. Fighting
a mounting sense of confusion, Francis goes out of his way to serve both
bosses. But with the distractions of a feminist book keeper, a
self-important actor, and select members of the criminal fraternity (not to
mention his own mammoth appetite) to contend with, how long can he keep
them apart? Richard Bean’s hilarious comedy received 5-star reviews from
every London newspaper and was the hit of the 2012 Broadway season.
