RICHMOND THEATRE ANNOUNCES NEW SUMMER SEASON

 

As always Richmond Theatre’s Summer Season brims with a scorching mix of drama, comedy, musical and family shows to keep everyone entertained with nights out to remember. 

 

A definite highlight of the season is the welcome return of Richmond favourite Simon Callow.   Following on from his recent one man show success in Dr Marigold and Mr Chops at The Riverside Studios, Simon now turns his attention to the bard uncovering the ‘real William Shakespearein Shakespeare The Man From Stratford.

 

Further delights for drama lovers include Oscar Wilde’s rarely seen masterpiece Salome, presented by Headlong and starring Con O’Neill under the direction of Jamie Lloyd; Northern Stage’s production of Joan Littlewood’s Oh What A Lovely War chronicling the subject of WW1 with a funny and moving mix of comedy, song and dance; Martin Shaw and Jenny Seagrove starring in The Country Girl; The Agatha Christie Theatre Company’s latest thrilling instalment, Witness for the Prosecution, starring Honeysuckle Weeks, Dennis Lill, Ben Nealon, Robert Duncan, Jennifer Wilson Peter Byrne and Mark Wynter.

 

Plus, younger members of the family are also catered for with two superb stage adaptations of popular children’s stories George’s Marvellous Medicine and The Gruffalo.

 

Fans of British comedy are in for a treat this season with two shows honouring two true late greats.  Robin Sebastian’s waspish portrayal of Kenneth Williams takes centre stage in Stop Messing About - The Kenneth William’s Extravaganza and Bob Golding’s Olivier award-winning portrayal of the Britain’s best loved comic comes to Richmond direct from its smash hit West End run in Morecambe.

 

Richmond’s Summer Season also offers a wide variety of musical shows.  Whether you want to swing with The Rat Pack, tap your toes to Gilbert & Sullivan’s HMS Pinafore or be carried away by the passion and precision of the Spirit of the Dance you will be sure to find what you’re looking for at Richmond Theatre.  Also for those after a bona fide musical the 2009 TMA award-winner of Best Musical, Spend, Spend, Spend has been described as a cross between Billy Elliott and Blood Brothers and boasts the talents of Craig Revel Horwood guaranteeing a slick, sassy show that bursts with energy.

 

Another Richmond favourite returns to Richmond Theatre this season.  Penelope Keith, paired with her To The Manor Born co-star Peter Bowles, stars in The Rivals, a sprightly period romp that sees them sparring on stage for the first time.  More comedy is on offer in the form of Liza Goddard and Jack Ellis who star in Alan Ayckbourn’s role reversal comedy If I Were You; Anita Harris and Brian Capron who star in the heart-warming comedy classic Stepping Out, which charts the journey of a ramshackle tap troupe to pull off the performance of a lifetime; Tom Conti stars in Wife After Death, an hilarious new comedy from Bafta award-winner Eric Chappell; Bernie Nolan reveals the entertaining truths of motherhood in the side-splittingly funny Mum’s The Word; Ronald Harwood’s uplifting bittersweet comedy Quartet brings together Edward Hardwicke, Gwen Taylor, Timothy West and Susannah York.

 

Finally, Richmond Theatre has packed in a variety of one night shows that include:Sing-a-long-a Rocky Horror,  An Evening with Gervase Phinn, Magic - A Kind of Queen & ELO, Ruby Wax, Katy Brand and the Glenn Miller Orchestra.

THE THUNDERBOLT by Arthur Wing Pinero

The eldest Mortimore, a brewer, has died. His estranged siblings gather to divide the spoils. But there is no will and an illegitimate daughter.
Guilt, envy and greed jostle for prominence as a large middle class family fight, with whatever weapons are at their disposal, for what they feel is their rightful and much needed inheritance.
In this 1908 play Pinero moves away from the London society of his earlier successes, like The Second Mrs Tanqueray, to the small town politics, tensions and sensitivities of a provincial town.

Press night 3 Sept.

 

THE COMPANY MAN by Torben Betts

A moving and poignant family portrait.

Press night 12 Nov.

 

ONCE BITTEN, A farce by Alfred Hennequin & Alfred Delacour

Translated and adapted by Reggie Oliver

There is a lawyer, his pretty wife, his mother in law, an impecunious uncle who falls asleep whenever he sits down, a hopeless maid, the lawyer’s lawyer friend and a disgruntled cook. And then there is suddenly his first brief – a divorce. So there is now also the woman who wants a divorce but no scandal and her husband who wants no divorce. And then there are, of course, the mistresses – and one has a dog. And all this has something to do with the Veauradieux case and missing jewellery. So now there are the police too!

CandyKing Theatre presents…

AN IDEAL HUSBAND BY OSCAR WILDE

 

27th April – 23rd May 2010

Tuesday – Saturday 7:30pm; Sundays 4pm –

Tickets: £12, £10 (concessions)

 

As a continuation of the special relationship between CandyKing Theatre and the Greenwich Playhouse, CandyKing Theatre are proud to present Oscar Wilde’s AN IDEAL HUSBAND in a four week run.

 

AN IDEAL HUSBAND is Wilde’s near to the knuckle masterpiece, a dazzling comedy about political corruption and blackmail, set in London high society. Awash with Wilde’s trademark wit, and his greatest dramatic plot, acerbic characters and brilliant fops, it is one of his finest theatrical pieces.

 

ACT NOW! DRAMA COMPANY PRESENT

 

THE ADVENTURES OF

ROYSTON COCKFOSTERS

 

Devised by the Act Now! Drama Company

 

Written & directed by David Hunt

 

"Never fear, Royston Cockfosters, explorer and adventurer is here!”

 

A fast paced comedy escapade!

 

THE ADVENTURES OF ROYSTON COCKFOSTERS is a zany comedy in which incompetent adventurer and explorer, Royston Cockfosters and his companions, Wilberforce and Corrine (Coz) Worthy set off on a perilous and hilarious trek into deepest darkest Africa in search of the mystical Jewel de Magica! – A stone that enables its owner to perform ‘real’ magic.

 

They are chasing a misguided magician, The Great Gerardo (alias Gerard Blooth) and his beautiful assistant, Dastardina Dangle, a mistress of disguise! Blooth is desperate to gain the stones power.

 

So, it’s a battle against time as Royston and his brave team confront the devilish Queen Po of the Oom Poo Poo tribe – (alias criminally insane underwear manufacturer Pauline Murcheson) who cruelly abuses her gentle daughter, Karina, in her attempts to achieve the greatest prize of all…

 

But who will get to the stone first…?

 

“A hero is one who knows how to hang on one minute longer.” -  (Novalis, German Poet)

 

The Adventures of Royston Cockfosters is the eighth production presented by the Act Now! Drama Company, following on from their successful production of Something Wicked This Way Comes, which ran at The Greenwich Playhouse last year and the dramatic interpretation of Sophocles Electra at The Courtyard. With a salute to the escapades of such iconic hero’s as Dick Barton, Bulldog Drummond and a hint of James Bond, blended with a continuous screwball comedy delivery, Royston and his friends and foes take us on a fast paced hilarious adventure into the world of danger, daring and double crossing.

 

“The rousing final sequence brought the audience to its feet and left many memorable moments in the mind.” ELECTRA, REMOTE GOAT, 2009

 

Director/Writer/Producer David Hunt’s recent productions include Something Wicked This Way Comes at The Greenwich Playhouse, Electra at The Courtyard, Coward’s Way, The Passion of Henrik Ibsen, That Happy Feeling!, Mind Games and The Tragedy of Federico Garcia Lorca at The Broadway Studio Theatre, West End Gold at The Gaiety Theatre (IOM), Beyond Therapy at Swansea Grand Theatre. His other directing credits include Blood Wedding, As You Like It, The Tempest and Blithe Spirit at The Barn Theatre, When You Wish at Windsor, Yerma, Present Laughter and Much Ado About Nothing at Dramascope Studios and over 90 showcase performances at Rose Bruford College. David trained at The Webber-Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art and continues to work as an actor. He is the Artistic Director of the Act Now! Drama Company.

Quotes for previous Act Now! shows:

 

“The description ‘wicked’ has many connotations in this modern age. It may be one of the words now used in the English vocabulary which is the total contradiction of itself, either termed as a description of pure evil or of an exclamation for brilliancy. This exploration into Shakespeare’s shadier characters from the ever developing Act Now! Drama Company, succeeds in illustrating moments of pure wickedness and ‘wicked’ moments of inspiration with its choices of material. The way those fragment’s of material are masterfully weaved together shows the clever imagination of the devisor.

Black Magic was well and truly created at The Greenwich Playhouse with this consideration of what makes the human soul follow the path of badness. Something Wicked did indeed this way come and both connotations of the word ‘wicked’ prove applicable!” – REMOTE GOAT (Something Wicked This Way Comes)

 

“In the programme notes David Hunt explains the reality of getting that happy feeling. If you need a fix of happiness then go and see this show.”

REMOTE GOAT (That Happy Feeling!)
