(UK, 2012) Director: Nicholas Hytner. Screenplay by Richard Bean, based on the play The Servant of Two Masters by Carlo Goldoni. With songs by Grant Olding. Cast: James Corden,  Oliver Chris, Jemima Hooper.

Cinestudio presents an encore performance of one of the National Theater Lives straight-out funniest performances, a smash hit that originated at the National Theater, only to move to Broadway and win James Corden the Tony Award for Best Actor. The National Theater's original version of this slapstick comedy is a riotous take on Carlo Goldonis Italian classic, The Servant of Two Masters, where sex, food, money and unadulterated British humor are high on the agenda. Set in 1960s Brighton, it opens as Corden gets kicked out of his skiffle band, only to take up two conflicting gigs -  he is hired by two East End crooks, who may very well be trying to do each other one in.  One Intermission.
