The Man with the Golden Pen

---

Written by Mark Burgess 

With Miles Richardson as Ian Fleming

and Roger Moore as the voice of Bond

Stratford Theatre Company follow up the recent successes of Dead on Cue, Three Men in a Boat, Old Herbaceous and Into The Breach with a play dedicated to the man who gifted us 007.

Looking out of his window as the rain lashed down during one of those grey, austerity-ridden days in post-war Britain, Ian Fleming made two of the most significant decisions of his life: never to spend winter in England again and to write the spy story to end all spy stories.

And that is exactly what he did.

It is 1952 and Fleming is putting the finishing touches to the first Bond book, Casino Royale and Bond is with us; the alter ego, an icon of class and everything Fleming aspired to...

The creator of Secret Agent 007, stands before the audience with a Martini in hand and a terrified look in his eyes. At 42 he is about to do the thing he most fears - he is getting married.

Who does he turn to for help? 

Bond. 

James Bond.

Future dates to be announced soon
