Overview

The West End’s celebration of Britain’s greatest double act MORECAMBE AND WISE

by Hamish McColl, Sean Foley and Eddie Braben.

Directed by Chris Jordan, Design by Julie Godfrey

Music Rob Cousins

Don’t miss this sensationally funny celebration of the legendary comedy duo Morecambe and Wise.

Packed with with riotous comedy and musical routines, The Play What I Wrote is brought to you by the team behind last summer’s The Hound of the Baskervilles and of course Eastbourne’s beloved Devonshire Park pantomimes.

When The Play What I Wrote opened in London’s West End it garnered, rave reviews and now will be bringing Eric and Ernie’s ‘Sunshine and Smiles’ to Eastbourne this August.

You see, Dan has written a play, set in the French Revolution called “A Tight Squeeze for the Scarlet Pimple”. Ben on the other hand, wants to continue with their own double act. Perhaps a tribute to Morecambe and Wise, would fulfil both their dreams? But first they need a guest star to appear in the play what Dan wrote? Who could they get?

Serving up an hilariously fun few hours of live theatre, music and a surprise guest star! This is the perfect show for all the family to enjoy this summer!
