A criminally funny new comedy
An all-star cast led by Al Murray plans the mother of all heists in the West End this year! The Crown Jewels at the Garrick Theatre is a riotous new comedy based on a bizarre story from British history.Charismatic Colonel Blood has always kept people on their toes, but his next plot is the most unpredictable one yet: he’s going to steal the Crown Jewels in plain sight.
