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.
Acorn Antiques by Victoria Woods is another ambitious production at the Crescent that we’re all looking forward to. Today’s rehearsal was all about learning the choreography for Mrs O’s entrance!

To complement the run of Hamlet the ever inventive Crescent Youth Theatre are about to present Tom Stoppards ‘Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead’ in the Ron Barber Studio. Catch it from Wednesday 24th to Saturday 27th March (matinee on Saturday).
After the critical and commercial success of ‘View From The Bridge’ it is the turn of ‘Hamlet’ (Main House) and ‘The Indian Boy’ (Ron Barber Studio) next up for the Crescent Theatre shows. I got in to see the first run through for the beguiling ‘Indian Boy’ by Rona Munro the other night. Click on the picture for more rehearsal images.
One of the great things about recording rehearsals at the theatre is that I get a bit of a sneak preview of a work in progress and from yesterdays evidence Hamlet is definitely going to be worth the anticipation. What was also great to see was how the whole cast were really enjoying exploring the text and working with each other - there was a really good company feel in the rehearsal room. Really looking forward to opening night.
