Former CASUALTY actor Tony Marshall will be appearing at the Edinburgh Festival this August.
Tony will be starring in ‘Eh Up, Me Old Flowers!’ at the Pleasance Theatre from the 8th – 29th August. The play written by Chris England is based on comedian Charlie Williams.

Perhaps his material would nowadays be considered questionable. But perhaps if you’d lived his extraordinary life in a white man’s world – coal miner, professional footballer, cabaret singer, comedian – you’d have done the same.
Now in retirement, Charlie faces an uncomfortable visit from a mysterious stranger who demands that he justify himself…
