Adolf & Winston
Synopsis:
Two Actors. Two World Leaders. One Black Dog. London, 1939. Winston Churchill looks in the mirror, realises that only he can steer our great nation through it's darkest hour and steels himself for the hard road ahead. Bristol, 2012. Howard Coggins looks in the mirror, shaves, realises he looks a bit like Winston Churchill and steels himself to break some bad news to his good friend, Stu. Bristol, 2013. Stu Mcloughlin looks in the mirror and realises that he'll have to grow a little moustache. Buoyed by the success of The Six Wives of Henry VIII, and unafraid to tackle the big subjects in an essentially inconsequential way, Howard and Stu are back walking the tightrope of taste and decency with another slice of poorly-researched history. But will either of them escape from this war alive. . .?

Six Wives of Henry VIII, The
Synopsis:
Howard Coggins looks like Henry VIII. there's no escaping that. Stu McLoghlin doesn't really look like any of the wives, but he's going to give it a go. After their previous self-funded two-man historical Drama is savaged in the press, Howard (Treasure Island) and Stu (Swallows and Amazons, Kneehigh's the Wild Bride) are at their wits' end. then they hit upon an idea for a show that could change everything. . . But can two of Bristol's favourite theatrical sons put aside their differences and make it through to the end without killing each other? This promises to be an ill-researched lesson in cross-dressing Tudor history that you'll never forget.
