Cleo, Camping, Emmanuelle and Dick
by Terry Johnson
Directed by Mike Wells
‘Cleo, Camping, Emmanuelle and Dick’ What’s the link? Of course, it’s Carry On! Cor Blimey! We all know what that means. Sid James carrying on. Kenneth Williams getting outraged. Barbara Windsor giggling. Blackpool naughty postcard humour.
But this play deals with the behind the scenes shenanigans of these much loved comedy stars and as well as the comedy, there’s some of the gritty reality and drama of less than glamorous showbiz life. In his caravan dressing room, Sid lives up to his lecherous screen persona with Kenneth disapproving of his goings on. But when Sid meets Barbara, the loud-mouthed blonde, he finds someone who gives as good as she gets.
This play combines ‘Carry On’ humour with the touching story of Sid and Barbara’s relationship: there’s a lot more to this show than ‘Carry On’.
Contains adult themes. Not suitable for children.
