Written by Mark Farrelly
Starring Simon Cartwright as Frankie Howerd and Mark Farrelly as Dennis Heymer
Directed by Joe Harmston
Can you imagine being terrified of your own happiness? You can? Then let’s begin…
Frankie Howerd was one of Britain’s most loved comedians for half a century. But he had a secret. And the secret’s name was Dennis.
This brand new play by Mark Farrelly (Quentin Crisp: Naked Hope) takes you to the heart of Frankie and Dennis’ clandestine relationship, which lasted from the 1950s until Frankie’s death in 1992. It also affords a glorious opportunity to encounter Frankie in full flight stand-up mode.
Packed with laughter, but unafraid of truth, Howerd’s End portrays two humans’ journey through closeness, love, grief, and all the other things that make life worth living. Come and say farewell to a legend…and learn the art of letting go.
'I knew Dennis, and I wrote for Frankie – and this play is brilliant' – Barry Cryer

A thriller of passion and betrayal in three acts.
Following on from the success of 'And Then There Were None' back in 2018, Honiton Community Theatre Company brings you another Agatha Christie classic 'The Hollow' - a thriller of passion and betrayal in three acts.
An unhappy game of romantic follow-the-leader explodes into murder one weekend at The Hollow, home of Sir Henry and Lucy Angkatell, arguably Christie's finest comic grande dame.
"The worst of murder is it does upset the servants so. We were to have duck for lunch. Still, cold duck can be quite nice" - Lady Angkatell
Tickets £10 (Allocated seating).
Ticket price includes £1 admin fee
Accessible seating available from the box office.
This amateur production of “The Hollow” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
