‘Arcadia’ by Tom Stoppard has opened in the Ron Barber Studio and will have it’s last performance at the theatre on the 11th June. The first production of this show at the National Theatre had a cast of Bill Nighy, Felicity Kendall, Rufus Sewell and Emma Fielding amongst a superb cast and the Crescent has put it’s own stellar cast together for their version. Many words have been written about a complex, yet funny and emotionally engaging play that takes in landscape gardening, the Newtonian system, classical mathematics and poetry verses penicillin etc, but perhaps start at the Independent’s article about it being ‘the greatest play of our age’.

Many weeks of rehearsal and preparation from the Festen cast and crew is about to come to fruition as it moved to the studio at the weekend and had its first dress rehearsal last night. Pictured is Conny Rose. Runs from the 5th to the 12th in the Ron Barber Studio.
The Acorn Antiques company are tip tapping their way through the 2nd dress rehearsal tonight and then onto the first night tomorrow. Book your tickets now for the joyous Mrs Overall, Miss Babs et al.
This weekends deadline was for the Festen publicity image which I very much like. Thanks to actors Matt Bartlett and Andrew Cowie for giving up their time and to Matt Banwell at Aptronym.co.uk for the design work.
