| FANTHORPE'S IS MORE THAN JUST A HAIR-CUTTING SERVICE Being a barber has always been about being a Master of Ceremonies. There's plenty of drama in people's lives (and we hear all about it) but we try to add a bit of theatre. Fanthorpe's is theatre - all the barbers and the customers are the actors. It's what a gentleman's barber should be. It always used to be that way.
