Twice Nightly
A celebration of the glory days of Variety, starring Dominic Goodwin as comedian Freddie Francis – a second spot comic touring the country for thirty years on every variety bill going. We find Freddie in 1956, recalling his life spent touring the halls; the ups, the downs, the riotous, the fantastic and the downright silly! He recalls his days entertaining the troops during the war, playing at the infamous Glasgow Empire, and we discover what really happened when a speciality act lost her snake on stage!!
Twice Nightly includes routines from amongst others; Max Miller, Rob Wilton, Jimmy James and Norman Evans and renditions of many of the popular songs of the time, such as ‘The Man who broke the bank at Monte Carlo’, ‘Happy days are here again’ and ‘Goodnight Sweetheart’.
Written and performed by Dominic Goodwin
Directed by Thomas Frere
