Roy Smiles’ play about Spike Milligan’s last times with the Goons and his complex and often fractious romantic relationship with Peter Sellers and Harry Secombe.

During the 1950s, ‘The Goon Display’ experienced England laughing week on week, greatly influencing Monty Python as well as the Beatles, among others – and paved just how for sketch comedy as we realize it today. With ‘Ying Tong’, rising UK playwright Roy Smiles brilliantly chronicles the Goons’ surge from cult status to raving success, showcasing the series’ brand surrealism and serious silliness.

Starring James Clyde, Kai Owen and Toby Longworth.
