Aside from appearing together as the leads in the movie ‘Carry On Screaming!’, comedy legend Kenneth Williams and iconic actress Fenella Fielding had a love/hate relationship lasting over several decades.
‘Screaming Queens!’, a full-cast audio drama from acclaimed comedy historian Robert Ross, takes us from the duo’s hit West-End revue together Pieces of Eight (written by Peter Cook), to behind the scenes of the classic and best-loved Carry On film that spoofed Hammer Horror’s output, before finishing with a poignant meeting in the final year of Kenneth’s life where they debate their enduring legacy and what it means to them.
‘Screaming Queens!’ is a what-if fantasy. A three-act, two-handed snapshot of a complex, bitchy, and completely unique friendship, seen through the prism of the stages of London’s West End and the movie sets of the classic Carry On film franchise.
