Les Misérables – Schools Edition Showdown Theatre Arts

Thursday 12th & Friday 13th September 7:30pm. Saturday 14th September, 2:30pm & 7:30pm £14. Concessions/Child £12. Showdown Theatre Arts, a leading theatre school for the future of the performing arts industry, present Broadway's legendary musical and now also an Oscar winning film 'Les Miserables'. This epic story recounts the struggle against adversity in 19th century France. Imprisoned for stealing a loaf of bread, petty thief Jean Valjean is released from his 19-year term and not only becomes an honest man, but the mayor of a prosperous town and a loving adoptive father - violating his parole in the process. The relentless Inspector Javert, who makes a decent life for Valjean impossible, consequently pursues him. Only years later, after Valjean proves his mettle during a bloody student uprising and saves the life of a young man hopelessly in love with Valjean's adopted daughter, does the ex-convict finally feel fully redeemed. With favourites like 'I Dreamed a Dream', 'One Day More' and 'Master of the House' this much loved production is not to be missed.

Turandot

Tuesday 17th September, £16. Concessions/Friends £13. Child £10 The Royal Opera House Live Cinema Season gets off to a dramatic start with the return of Puccini’s musically sublime final opera Turandot. This sad, yet romantic opera, set in Ancient China includes the famous tenor aria ‘Nessun Dorma’ and has captivated the hearts of audiences since its first performance in 1926. One of the greatest Turandot singers today, Lise Lindstrom, makes her Royal Opera debut, with Marco Berti, a wonderful Puccinian singer, in the role of Prince Calaf.

Film Screenings: To bring our Family Fun Films to an end we will be screening The Lone Ranger during the final week of the school holidays. We also be showing Breathe In just before we begin to screen a selection of foreign language films to link in with European Day of Languages on the 26th September. We will be screening a variety of foreign language films; from French comedy Populaire to a Spanish twist on the Snow White Fairy Tale Blancanieves. All dates and times of these screenings can be found on our website: www.theleatherheadtheatre.org Alternatively contact our Box Office on 01372 365 141 or come into The Theatre’s foyer where you are able to pick up a film flier.
