Steptoe & Son

Carrying on the successful staging of popular TV comedies, Milton Keynes Theatre of Comedy presented three classic Steptoe & Son episodes: 'The Bird','The Desperate Hours' and 'Oh, What a Beautiful Mourning'. Will Harold's social aspirations lift him from his miserable existence at Oil Drum Lane, or will his father Albert keep him stuck in the family business?
Steptoe & Son was written by Ray Galton and Alan Simpson and was performed at the Chrysalis Theatre from Thursday 3rd November to Saturday 5th November 2011.
