Single Spies

2nd - 9th April 2022
Alan Bennett’s Olivier Award winning comedy masterpiece uncovers the
true stories behind two notorious spies.
Guy Burgess and Anthony Blunt were members of the infamous Cambridge
Spies. This compelling double bill, set in both Moscow and London,
chronicles their extraordinary lives: secret identities, police
interrogations, and encounters with the Queen.
In An Englishman Abroad, double agent Guy Burgess has defected to the
Soviets and is living in Moscow. But when he’s visited by the actress
Coral Browne, Burgess entrusts her with a top secret mission of her
own.
As A Question of Attribution shows, there was nobody Sir Anthony
Blunt didn’t know. As Surveyor of the Queen’s Pictures, he was on
friendly terms with Her Majesty. But with an art forgery on his hands
and a policeman in his office, Blunt’s latest trip to Buckingham
Palace is looking awkward…
These witty comedies are as fascinating as they are funny.
