Not the Benny Hill Show

An entertaining, provocative and timely play about the birth of woke.

Based on a true story.

1989: Benny Hill, Britain’s most successful comedian ever, is called to a meeting by ITV’s Controller of Comedy. He’s expecting a warm welcome: his show has, after all, made the channel hundreds of millions of pounds. But he’s in for a shock. Complicating matters further, he then gets trapped in the Controller’s office with a feminist secretary and an angry young comedian. The world, Benny discovers, is changing. But can he?

An entertaining, provocative and timely play about the birth of woke.

Thu 22 Apr 7pm performance will be followed by a post show talk – a unique opportunity to hear the actors talk about their experiences and your chance to ask questions.
