Coming to Bath

Tim Piggott-Smith, Barbara Jefford and Nicholas le Provost are among the stellar cast lined up for the 2007 Peter Hall Company Season at Bath Theatre Royal this summer. This year's festival, the fifth, sees the UK premiere of Victory by South African writer Athol Fugard; the world premiere of Little Nell by Simon Gray, based on The Invisible Woman by Claire Tomalin, as well as revivals of Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw, How the Other Half Loves by Alan Ayckbourn and Animal Farm, adapted by Peter Hall from the novel by George Orwell.

There's Bennett with Office Suite, starring Patricia Routledge; a revival of Ayckbourn's Bedroom Farce and a visit from the touring production of Acorn Antiques - The Musical. Christopher Timothy and Stephanie Beecham star in Noel Coward's Hay Fever in Peter Hall's West End production which originally featured Judi Dench; David Suchet makes a welcome return with The Last Confession by Roger Crane and fans of Philip Pullman will want to book early for the acclaimed National Theatre production of His Dark Materials, which opens in April 2008.
