After a successful run at the Rialto Theatre in Brighton, as part of the Brighton Fringe Festival, Martin Lingus will be finding a (temporary) new home at The Bread & Roses Theatre in Clapham in July.
Time is running out for Martin. He needs to find a lady. A lady with a house. But his boyish charm isn’t working like it used to.
In this dark comedy about love, inner demons and period features, West End actor Clive Marlowe plays the character of Martin Lingus, as well as his mother and his various girlfriends – without the use of props or costumes.
The character of Martin Lingus started life as a 10-minute monologue in a Brighton Fringe show called Sex in Shorts, which was nominated for Brighton & Hove Independent’s Outstanding Local Talent Award in 2015.
This short monologue, ‘A Lady with a House’, was selected for performance at Leicester Square Theatre, as part of Director’s Cut Theatre’s show The Interview.
