The spring / summer 2013 season will see Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse productions flourish in Liverpool, London and around the country.
Roger McGough’s new adaptation of the Molière classic The Misanthrope has its world première in Liverpool before a UK tour and the European première of The Kite Runner will be brought to the stage in a co-production with Nottingham Playhouse. Stephen Unwin will direct A Day in the Death of Joe Egg which opens at the Playhouse before moving to the Rose Theatre, Kingston.
Artistic director of the Everyman and Playhouse Gemma Bodinetz said: “We are tremendously excited about our collaborations with English Touring Theatre, Nottingham Playhouse and the Rose Theatre on some brave and courageous new work on the Playhouse main stage.”
In 2013 the theatres will also host children’s theatre from companies of international repute, including the first-ever work specifically for families and young people by Complicite and Northern Ballet.
