More Daddy Cool
Changes
There have been yet more changes to the run of the Boney M musical Daddy
Cool which is due to open in September. The proposed Gala performance
in Berlin has now been cancelled and the performances from 11th to 20th
September at the Shaftesbury Theatre, cancelled because of the German
gala, are now reinstated and tickets are onsale. However previews which
were due to start on 15th August will not not begin until a week later,
22nd. The opening night, however, remains the same: 21st September.
Reality TV Play to Close Early
On the Third Day, the winning play in the reality TV show The
Play's the Thing, currently playing at the New Ambassadors, will close
a month early on 29th July.
National Backs Punchdrunk
The National Theatre is co-producing Punchdrunk Theatre's site-specific
production of Faust, a combination of Goethe's and Marlowe's
versions of the story. The piece, which will be performed in a warehouse
in Wapping Lane, near Tower Bridge, runs from 17th October (previews
from 10th) to 18th November.
It is a promenade production, lasting three hours in two ninety minute
cycles. Audience members will be free to watch as much of the piece
as they want to or simply wander around the building. A team of designers
will apply a cinematic level of detail to the space to allow the audience
to immerse itself in the world of the play. After admission, patrons
embark upon an individual journey and may stay inside the performance
for as long as they wish. Patrons are advised to dress warmly and wear
practical shoes.
New Tours
Two new tours begin in the coming weeks:
- Richard Everett’s Entertaining
Angels, which premiered at the Chichester Festival in May
and stars Penelope Keith, is to tour to Richmond, Brighton, Woking,
Malvern, Milton Keynes, Windsor and Bath. It opens at Richmond on
5th September.
- In August Peter Hall's production of Alan Bennett's Habeas
Corpus, currently playing at the Bath Theatre Royal, will
tour to Plymouth, Malvern, Glasgow, Salford, Brighton and Poole.
