Tom Edden to Return to National Theatre’s One Man, Two Guvnors

Drama Desk Award winner and Tony nominee Tom Edden will return to the National Theatre’s production of One Man, Two Guvnors by Richard Bean, which has extended its bookings through August 31, 2013 at Theatre Royal Haymarket. Edden, who originated his role both in London and New York, will once again play Alfie the Waiter beginning November 19. Nicholas Hytner directs.

One Man, Two Guvnors centers on Francis Henshall, who agrees to work for a local gangster as well as a criminal in hiding, both of whom are linked in a tangled web of schemes and romantic associations, which Francis cannot keep straight.
