Celebrated stage and screen actor (and Knight of the Realm) Sir John Standing takes to the stage of Pizza on the Park for an extended run of his critically acclaimed show Singing NOEL COWARD which sold out at Bellamy's earlier this year. Standing, who has appeared onstage on Broadway
and The West and in numerous Hollywood movies, including V for Vendetta and Walk Don't Run (with Cary Grant), knew Coward personally and presents a razor sharp programme of the composer and dramatist's beloved repertoire, peppered with personal anecdotes.

With Stuart Barr: Piano

Songs include: 'I've Been To A Marvellous Party', 'The Stately Homes Of England', 'Mad Dogs and Englishman' and 'If Love Were All' and many more.
