“A wonderfully layered piece brought to life with love and understanding”
Broadway Baby​​
“Certain sections of the press seem to have sore misgivings about my plans.
​I told them to put some talcum powder on them. It’s time to Carry On Regardless!”

​
An ageing film producer tries to resurrect his past cinematic successes by revitalising the Carry On franchise with a brand new film. Saucy seaside humour, double entendre and cheeky sexual innuendo. Just what a millennial audience wants, right?
 

Haunted by past successes, and friends and colleagues long since gone, he determines to secure his legacy and pull off one of the biggest cinematic comebacks of all time – a brand new Carry On film!
 

But should the past be revisited? Or is the Carry On brand better left alone – the product of a bygone time?

An affectionate tribute to the Carry On films, one of the most successful film franchises in British cinema history, this acclaimed new play is about ageing, the human spirit and our changing attitudes whilst delivering “the perfect blend of innuendo, fun, drama and insight” (One4Review).

Darren Haywood plays Peter Rogers, the producer of all the Carry On films and delivers “a moving exploration of Peter Rogers’ life” (Everything Theatre). He also takes us through the times of all our favouriteiconic Carry On characters who "come to life throughout the performance” (Theatre, Films & Arts Reviews).

Written by James Nicholas and directed by Simon Ravenhill, Can't Stop Carrying On sold out at its debut at the Edinburgh Fringe, and received Best Performance at Brighton Fringe (The Actors).​


​Following the interval there will be a Question & Answer session with James Nicholas and Darren Haywood and they will discuss the insiration behind this play and bringing such iconic characters to life.
