Martin Jarvis performs the first of two comic classics at The Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond. A full house rocks with laughter as he entertains, solo, as William Brown.

Award-winning Martin Jarvis performs the first of two Richmal Crompton comic classics, live on-stage. It's Just William as stand-up!

It鈥檚 the last day of term. William is depressed. He鈥檚 got to have holiday coaching unless his school report is a really good one.

It isn鈥檛. It鈥檚 the worst he鈥檚 ever had.

As he walks slowly home through the woods he meets an old lady. She鈥檚 lost. It鈥檚 his father鈥檚 aunt who is coming to lunch at his house. Then William has one of his most brilliantly lateral ideas.

A packed house at The Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, Surrey rocks with laughter as Martin Jarvis performs as William and the batty aunt.
