Award-winning actress Sheila Hancock and comedian Lee Evans both return to the West End to star in the world premiere of Barking in Essex, Clive Exton's hilarious 2005 black comedy directed by Harry Burton.
Meet the Packers, Essex's lovable but highly dysfunctional family. Algie Packer, the county's most notorious gangster, has just done seven years at Her Majesty’s pleasure and is finally free and eager to collect his ill-gotten gains - £3,672,000 in untraceable notes. But there's something Algie's family have forgotten to mention.....
His brother, hapless, dim witted Darnley, the village idiot of the criminal underworld, and his mother Emmie - the family's Rottweiler with a hairdo - are frantically trying to cover their tracks before Algie arrives home to take what is rightfully his.
