New Old Friends

Anthony Horowitz' novel, The Falcon's Malteser, is now a hilarious family show following the adventures of the hopelessly inept private detective Tim Diamond and his sharp witted brother Nick. The plot sees the Diamond Brothers Detective agency on a thrilling case to discover just what is so important about the box of Maltesers.

It features a host of brilliant characters like: The Fat Man (who has lost a lot of weight), Gott & Himmel, Lauren Barcardi, Beatrice von Falkenberg and Betty Cleaner. The Falcon's Malteser is for family audiences (8+) and draws upon the comic song writing pedigree of the New Old Friends' national debut tour (the five-star Silly Songs of Shakespeare) as well as puppetry, slapstick and a cast of four playing multiple roles.

This is a great night out for all the family; funny, exciting and full of energy.
