Urinetown - St James Theatre

13 May 2013 - 04:55 PM

See http://www.ugclondon.co.uk/

They are not revealing the name of the show, in some bizarre publicity stunt, but it's a musical comedy in which the initials UGC are prominent, which ran for several years on Broadway. So it's Urinetown, presumably.

OK maybe it's not actually him ;)

Very amusing anyway

Sam Wanamaker Playhouse (Globe Indoors) Opening Season

22 April 2013 - 05:27 PM

Seems like a crazily early season announcement but maybe advance ticket sales will help fund the rest of the building project.

Interesting selection - Dromgoole does Duchess of Malfi, Knight of the Burning Pestle (creatives TBC), John Marston's The Malcontent done by the new "Globe Young Company", a company of 12 to 16 year olds (which may be fascinating, or may be taking "authenticity" too far), plus an opera (L'Ormindo) co-produced with the Royal Opera House.

Hmmm ... some of this sounds interesting although it does give the impression someone didn't tell Vicky Featherstone she was supposed to start her new job in May

Dances Of Death

Sounds interesting - New version by Howard Brenton of parts 1 and 2 of Strindberg's Dance of Death, starring Michael Pennington and Linda Marlowe. Gate Theatre from 30 May to 6 July

Loved the Trafalgar version of Part 1 last year.
