Additionally, the producers appear to be honest. I can really see no reason not to turn up on time, and put the bloody hours in.” Justin Edwards added “I agree.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQTMYBe6CAc The much-loved film was released in 1951, directed by Charles Crichton, and starring Alec Guinness, Stanley Holloway and Sid James, as well as Audrey Hepburn in one of her earliest screen appearances. It was ranked by the BFI as one of the greatest British Films of all time and was restored and re-released in UK cinemas in 2011 for its sixtieth anniversary. This side-splittingly funny, fast-paced comedy tells the story of Henry Holland, an unassuming bank clerk who dreams of stealing the van full of gold bullion he drives across London each day. When Henry learns that his new lodger makes Eiffel Tower paperweights out of lead, he devises a plan to make his dream a reality. It’s a golden opportunity to pull off the crime of the century, they’d have to be fools to mess it up … Come and rediscover this much-loved classic in this brand-new stage play that promises to be the most fun night out of the year! The Lavender Hill Mob Tour is directed by Jeremy Sams, designed by Francis O'Connor, associate direction by Louise Shephard, composer and magic by Tim Sutton, and casting by Ginny Schiller CDG.
