Event Description

Adapted by Clive Francis from Graham Greene’s novel of the same title, Our Man in Havana follows the hilarious exploits of James Wormold, a British vacuum cleaner salesman in pre-revolutionary Havana, Cuba.

Struggling financially to support his spoiled daughter, Wormold is recruited by MI6 agent Hawthorne to be a spy. Devoid of any actual spy skills or intentions, Wormold invents an entire network of fictional agents and reports, using his imagination and local bar conversations.

His absurd reports, purporting to depict secret weapons, are taken seriously by MI6, leading to real-world consequences as the Cuban government grows suspicious.

Jack Ashton (Call The Midwife), Bob Barrett (Holby City), Leon Ockenden, (Waterloo Road) and Jodie Steele (Heathers The Musical – New York & London) play over thirty characters between them to bring 1950s Havana vividly to life in this wonderfully funny and fast-moving romp!
