Things I Know To Be True: heading for Coventry

Imogen Stubbs and Natalie Casey head the cast of Andrew Bovell’s new play Things I Know to be True, one of the highlights of the autumn programme at Warwick Arts Centre, Coventry.

Frantic Assembly and the State Theatre Company of South Australia’s Things I Know to be True tells the story of a family through the eyes of four grown siblings struggling to define themselves beyond their parents’ love and expectations.

The cast also includes Matthew Barker, Richard Mylan, Kirsty Oswald and Ewan Stewart. The production runs at Warwick Arts Centre from 11 until 22 October.

English Touring Theatre will visit the Coventry venue with Terence Rattigan’s 1936 comedy French Without Tears. It follows the “hilarious activities and calamities of a group of young men who fall for the charms of a beautiful visitor to their French Summer school”. It runs from 1 until 5 November.

Kneehigh returns to Warwick Arts Centre with Michael Morpurgo’s story of war prejudice and love, 946: The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips, from 8 until 12 November.

The dance programme has an international feel, with the Aditi Mangaldas Company’s Inter_rupted combining “the ancient art of Kathak with a 21st century sound, rhythm and light” on 30 October and the East Midlands-based Aakash Odedra Company presenting a double bill of Echoes and I Imagine on 30 November and 1 December.
