Event Navigation
Fresh from a sell-out tour, Edward Fox returns to the stage with his acclaimed portrayal of John Betjeman, one of the best-loved poets of the 20th century.
Sand in the Sandwiches celebrates a man famous not only for light verse and laughter, but for his passions, his sense of purpose and his unforgettable poetry.
Embracing his delight for nostalgia and delicious irreverence, Sand in the Sandwiches travels through Betjeman’s boyhood, his adolescence, to life as Britain’s Poet Laureate, presenting a hugely entertaining insight into the world of this national treasure.
Double BAFTA award winner Edward Fox is one of this country’s most eminent actors. His distinguished career counts iconic British films such as The Day of the Jackal, A Bridge Too Farand Oh! What a Lovely War, to name but a few.
★★★★★ “A masterclass”
★★★★ “I adored this show, a magical heavenly tribute to Betjeman” The Daily Mail

An endearing portrayal of Betjeman by one of our finest and well loved actors. Edward's variety of facial expressions are a joy to behold, as is his wonderful voice. Such passion and enthusiasm are a delight. Not to be missed!
