Clark Announces New Hampstead Season
Anthony Clark, the incoming artistic director of the Hampstead Theatre,
who replaces Jenny Topper who was awarded a CBE last month, has announced
his first season at the theatre. It consists of six productions which
will run until 6th March, 2003.
- The Maths Tutor by Clare McIntyre will open the season on
25th September (World premiere)
- Second in the season will be Gregory Burke's second play, following
the huge success of this first, Gagarin Way, which was a hit at the
Edinburgh Fringe and went on to equal success in London. The Straits
opens on 29th October and runs until 29th November. (London premiere)
- From 4th December to 3rd January Hampstead will present its Christmas
play for children, aimed at 7 to 11 year olds: Meteorite by
Barbara Norden. (World premiere)
- Revelations by Stephen Lowe runs from 10th December to 31st
January. (World premiere)
- From 5th January to 6th March Drew Pautz’s first play All
This Stuff will run. (World premiere)
- The last play of the season will be a two-hander by Hanif Kureishi,
When The Night Begins. (World premiere)
Anthony Clark saysof his first season: "The chance to run a vibrant
new writing theatre in a stunning new home has to be one of the most
exciting jobs in British Theatre. While the plays I have chosen all
share a passion on behalf of the writers to explore the contemporary
world, it's the boldness of the writing and the variety of tone which
I believe distinguishes them."
