Two working-class Jews, the best of friends, dream on a park bench. Morris wants a revolution; Alec wants to feed the pigeons.
Spanning four decades of British life, BREAD AND BUTTER is the hilarious and heartbreaking story of an eccentric friendship. Mixing salmon sandwiches with talk of war and women, two men search for a slice of happiness amidst the rubble of the twentieth century.
Following an acclaimed London run and a sell-out Scottish tour, Dumbfounded Theatre and Oxford Stage Company join forces once again to bring C.P. Taylor’s classic to the Tricycle Theatre.
