Some interesting things planned for here. In the tiny Ustinov Richard Jones will be directing Pinter's The Birthday Party following his success with Machinal. That takes up the whole of August. Deborah Warner will be directing Ian Bostridge in Schubert's Die Winterreise with dates in June and September. Countertenor Iestyn Davies will be performing with a lute-player for a couple of nights in September.
A revival of Emlyn Williams' Accolade coming over from the Theatre Royal, Windsor, may hit the spot for those of us interested in early 20th century rarities. Set in a very different world to that of The Corn is Green, it focuses on a successful writer as he is about to be awarded a major prize, the blurb says. It's directed by Sean Mathias. Tom Littler's production of Coward's Suite in Three Keys will be coming over from The Orange Tree.
Rather exciting in my view - and I think there'll be more in the Deborah Warner season.
