    We Caught The Cast Of The Crown Jewels Red-Handed

    We caught the cast of The Crown Jewels red-handed as they rehearse ahead of their opening performance! Take a good long look at the images in our gallery, as this band of merry misfits will soon be on the run from crown and country, and who knows when they will be caught again? The historical heist will steal your heart as well as the crown jewels, when it opens at the Garrick Theatre on 7th July. Book your tickets today.

    What is The Crown Jewels about?

    Based on the farcical true story of Colonel Blood (that is his real name, as much as it sounds like a WWE pseudonym) this silly slapstick follows a band of unlikely burglars as they attempt to pull off the most audacious crime in modern history, to steal the crown jewels: in plain sight. An array of aristocrats and prominent members of the royal family are soon caught up in this right royal scandal as Charles II attempts to make an example out of those who try to belittle him. After all, no King likes people handling their crown jewels…

    Will the trio of turncoats successfully steal the loot, or will their criminal reign meet an abrupt end? There’s only one way to find out…
