James Corden will soon lead the Broadway production of The National Theatre of Great Britain's acclaimed comedy One Man, Two Guvnors, but before opening on the Great White Way, Corden hosted the 2012 Brit Awards. Go behind the scenes of the festivities with Corden in the videos below!
One Man, Two Guvnors, directed by Nicholas Hytner, is based on Carlo Goldoni's The Servant of Two Masters and features songs by Grant Olding. One Man, Two Guvnors will open at the Music Box Theatre (239 West 45th Street) on Broadway on April 18, 2012. James Corden will lead the National Theatre Company on Broadway.

In One Man, Two Guvnors, Corden stars as "Francis Henshall" ("ONE MAN"). Always-famished and easily-confused, Henshall agrees to work for a local gangster as well as a criminal in hiding ("TWO GUVNORS"), both of whom are linked in a tangled web of schemes and romantic associations... none of which Francis can keep straight. So he has to do everything in his power to keep his two guvnors from meeting while trying to eat anything in sight along the way. Simple.
Falling trousers, flying fish heads, star-crossed lovers, cross-dressing mobsters and a fabulous on-stage band are just some of what awaits at the most "deliriously funny" (The Daily Telegraph) new play to cross the pond in decades.
The creative team for One Man, Two Guvnors includes Mark Thompson (set & costumes), Cal McCrystal (Physical Comedy Director), Mark Henderson (lights) & Paul Arditti (sound).
One Man, Two Guvnors will be produced on Broadway by Bob Boyett and The National Theatre of Great Britain.
