The Dead Wait opens in November

The Park Theatre which opened in London's Finsbury Park in May has announced its second season.

Two world premières feature in the line up—new play Adult Supervision from Park Theatre’s Writer in Residence Sarah Rutherford and Stroke of Luck by Larry Belling which will star Tim Pigott-Smith.

Artistic Director Jez Bond said today, “Since our opening in May, we have been overwhelmed by the support for the new venue, both within the local community and across the capital.

"I’m thrilled to announce our new season today—a diverse mix of new work, innovative and exciting partnerships with new and established companies, and the cream of British theatrical talent across both our spaces.

"This season builds on the foundations of our work thus far, cementing our place in the London theatre scene, and I look forward to building on this as we secure the future for the theatre in Finsbury Park.”

The season opener is Filter Theatre’s Twelfth Night, and Snapdragon Productions, whose current production of Thark opened this week, returns later in the year with The Dead Wait.

The venue's first Christmas show will be Sleeping Beauty and a festival of improvisation will run from 20 to 26 January.
