Neil Pearson

Neil Pearson was born in pre-gentrification Battersea in London. After film and television success, he finally managed to move back to the area where he grew up, which is now affluent “south Chelsea”. Pearson is bringing his production, The Missing Hancocks, which is based on rediscovered material from BBC radio’s Hancock’s Half Hour show, to the International Beckett Festival in Enniskillen on July 31 and August 1.
