Richard Bean
One Man, Two Guvnors writer Richard Bean is premiering three plays this year. He discusses his prolific career, with contributions from James Corden and Nicholas Hytner.
In a Front Row special, playwright Richard Bean discusses his prolific and varied career, which includes One Man, Two Guvnors and three new plays this year alone: Great Britain, Pitcairn and Made in Dagenham.
James Corden, who played the original lead in One Man, Two Guvnors, talks to John Wilson about what is possibly the best role he'll ever play.
