Alan Davies & Stephen Fry are Bow & Bells in Dick Whittington at Lyric

Dick Whittington and his Cat are playing at the Lyric Hammersmith this Christmas (previews 27th November, opens 3rd December).  It will feature Alan Davies and Stephen Fry as the voices of Bow and Bells who are the puppets following Dick’s adventures.

Davies is probably best known for Jonathan Creek and Fry’s most recent vocal performance is playing the Cheshire Cat in Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland.  They also appear regularly together in the very entertaining highbrow quiz show QI.

It is likely that Fry was persuaded to put in this rather unusual performance for him is that his boyfriend Steven Webb is playing Dick.
