Liverpool Theatres' New Season

Artistic director Gemma Bodinetz and executive director Deborah Aydon of Liverpool's Everyman and Playhouse Theatres have announced part two of the two theatres' 2010 programme.

The season has already begun at the Playhouse with Jonathan Harvey's new play Canary set in Liverpool and London and looking at the changing attitudes towards homosexuality in Britain between the 1960s and the present day. The Everyman season begins with Howard Brenton's new stage adaptation of The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists from the famous novel by Robert Tressell, which will see the return of Christopher Morahan to direct who recently directed Jonathan Pryce in The Caretaker.

New writing festival Everyword returns to the Everyman for two weeks in May, featuring workshops from David Eldridge and Paines Plough and rehearsed readings of new works by Robert Farquhar, Laurence Wilson and Kellie Smith.

Visiting artists and performers include Daniel Kitson with 66A Church Road, Sound & Fury with Kursk written in collaboration with Bryony Lavery, Wayne McGregor and Random Dance with Entity, Stephen Mallatratt's adaptation of the Susan Hill ghost story The Woman In Black, Simon Callow in The Man From Stratford: Being Shakespeare and Slung Low with its interactive installation for young people Small Worlds.
