Hall to Take Over at Hampstead Hampstead Theatre today announced that Edward Hall has been appointed Artistic Director and Chief Executive of Hampstead Theatre, taking over from Anthony Clark at the end of January. Hall’s inaugural season will be announced later this spring/early summer and will open in the autumn. Edward Hall has won numerous awards and critical acclaim for his direction of new and classic plays, musicals and television drama. His all-male Shakespeare company, Propeller, mounts productions every twelve to eighteen months which tour in the UK and internationally, regularly playing at BAM in New York and festivals around Europe. Hall will remain as Artistic Director of Propeller. He is also an associate of the National Theatre, the Watermill Theatre and the Old Vic. He said, "Hampstead Theatre and I share a passion for finding new audiences for theatre and I am thrilled to be taking over as Artistic Director." Dame Jenny Abramsky, Chair of the Board of Hampstead Theatre, commented, "Edward has an enormous amount of energy and confidence to bring to the company. He has broad experience across the theatre and film mediums, and an infectious excitement for bringing the most innovative theatre-makers together. We eagerly anticipate his first season."
