Evelyn Waugh's classic novel Brideshead Revisited is brought to the stage in an adaptation by Bryony Lavery that re–imagines the action as protagonist Charles Ryder recollects his first encounter with Brideshead Castle and its residents, Lord and Lady Marchmain and their children Julia, Cordelia, Bridey and Sebastian Flyte.
Damian Cruden directs Christopher Simpson as Sebastian, Brian Ferguson as Charles and Rosie Hilal as Julia. Nick Blakeley, Caroline Harker, Samantha Lawson, Kiran Sonia Sawar, Paul Shelley and Shuna Snow complete the company.
