Film director Stanley Kubrick’s savage and irreverent 1964 black comedy Dr Strangelove Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb, tapped into the creeping paranoia of the Cold War and has become a timeless movie parody. Now for the first time, theatregoers have an opportunity to enjoy the spectacle of a crazed US Airforce General ordering a pre-emptive strike on the Russians in this West End production of the movie which has been co-adapted by Armando Iannucci and Sean Foley, (with the latter also serving as director) starring multiple BAFTA winner Steve Coogan.
