Ian McKellen and Roger Allam to star in new comedy FRANK AND PERCY

Sir Ian McKellen and Roger Allam will star in the national premiere of new comedy Frank and Percy by Ben Weatherill at Theatre Royal Windsor from 9 June-22 July.

Directed by Sean Mathias, McKellen will play Percy alongside Allam as Frank.

Frank and Percy is a poignant and witty take on the unexpected relationship that blossoms between two men. Devoted to their canine companions, they believe that human connection is far more temperamental, but as their dogs play in the park, can Frank, a widowed schoolteacher and Percy, a somewhat radical elder statesman, find the time for new infatuation, or should they just let sleeping dogs lie?

Priority booking is now open, with general on sale from 13 March here.
