If you are a fan of Star Wars, or indeed can remember films like Lawrence of Arabia or Doctor Zhivago you could almost say “These are the halves of Guinness you were looking for!”. Two Halves of Guinness will open its UK tour at the Watermill, where it will run from Thursday 29 January – Saturday 31 January. Sir Alec Guinness’ commanding performance as Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars secured his fame for future generations.

Two Halves of Guinness reveals a mysterious life story worthy of the darkest Ealing Comedies, revisiting his most memorable characters and encountering a galaxy of stars along the way. Zeb Soanes (Classic FM, BBC Radio 4) stars as ‘Alec Guinness’ in a play written by Mark Burgess, directed by Selina Cadell (Eddie Izzard’s Great Expectations, Hamlet; Miles Jupp in The Life I Lead), and produced by Julian Bird for Green Room Ents.
