COMEDY

JOHNSON AND BOSWELL

LATE BUT LIVE! AS YOU LIKE IT
 
This event has expired.
At Eden Court OneTouch Theatre
--------------------

Due to the popularity of this show, a third night at Eden Court has now been added.

"Much may be made of a Scotchman, if he be caught young." (Samuel Johnson)

This new comedy from Stewart Lee, author of Jerry Springer: The Opera stars stand-up Simon Munnery (League of Tedium) as Dr Samuel Johnson and Miles Jupp (winner of So You Think Your Funny) as James Boswell.

The two bilious bores leap to the present day to relaunch their books about their famed tour of Scotland. They've much to say about Scotland in the intervening years and make for a brilliantly funny double act as Boswell attempts to defend his nation against Johnson’s savage wit.

This historically hilarious two-hander comes to Eden Court following a sell-out Edinburgh Festival run at The Traverse and prior to re-tracing the great men’s steps by embarking on a Highland tour.

Please contact the Box Office to book your tickets on 01463 234 234.




Seat prices £12.00
Reduced rate £10.00
