A theatre company in the UK has run a couple of seasons of a highly successful one-man show of the above title. It is centred around Fleming's writing of CR after his marriage to Ann Rothermere. I have not seen it myself but have heard very good reviews.

Here is a link:

- it is a possiblity that it can be hired for an event such as the one with which this forum is concerned.

I had a review on the site earlier in the year, but never thought of it in relation to our Bond event. Heck, if its playing, then why not! Specifically renting it out would, sadly, drive up costs. But I'll note the idea down :)

It might not make much difference to average cost if there were enough people, also, it would be a good marketing opportunity for Hanover Productions. I could always speak to them (if and when the time comes) and try and get a deal. If we could guarantee some media attention they might do a deal, as we are not a 'company' as such.
