S “A theatre built on aspirations to produce the very best�

Liverpool Daily Post

Amanda Drew Sam Troughton

Tennessee Williams

A Streetcar Named Desire Directed by Gemma Bodinetz

4

Lies, lies, inside and out. All lies.

Desperate times call for desperate measures as faded southern belle, Blanche Dubois escapes to the heat and the heart of New Orleans. But a dark past is hard to leave behind and when confronted for the first time with her brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski, the present soon turns ugly.

Tennessee Williams’s tender yet powerful Pulitzer Prizewinning 1947 play has long been considered a landmark of 20th century theatre. Artistic Director Gemma Bodinetz directs another American classic following her critically acclaimed Playhouse productions of All My Sons and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf.

Director: Gemma Bodinetz Designer: Gideon Davey Lighting Designer: Paul Keogan Sound Designer: Fergus O’Hare Composer: Peter Coyte Cast: Annabelle Apsion, Russell Bentley, Leanne Best, Amanda Drew, Stephen Fletcher, Matthew Flynn, Alan Stocks, Mandi Symonds and Sam Troughton.

16+

This will be the first Tennessee Williams produced by the Playhouse in over thirty years.

FRI 17 FEB TO SAT 10 MAR 5

A Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester and Lyric Hammersmith Production

MOGADISHU

By Vivienne Franzmann Directed by Matthew Dunster

Following its world première and sell-out runs at the Lyric Hammersmith and Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester, Mogadishu arrives at the Liverpool Playhouse to explore the clash of youth, class, race and justice.

When white secondary-school teacher Amanda is pushed to the ground by black student Jason, she’s reluctant to report him as she knows exclusion could condemn him to a future as troubled as his past. But when Jason decided to protect himself by spinning a story of his own, Amanda is sucked into a vortex of lies in which victim becomes perpetrator. With the truth becoming less clear and more dangerous by the day, it isn’t long before careers, relationships and even lives are under threat.

The only North West performances of the winner of the 2008 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting.

“The play of the year? Quite possibly.”HHHHH Daily Telegraph 6

Spymonkey in Association with Royal and Derngate Northampton Present

OEDIPUSSY Performed by Aitor Basauri, Stephan

Kreiss, Petra Massey and Toby Park Directed and Adapted by Emma Rice Written by Carl Grose and the Company Hot on the heels of their acclaimed version of Moby Dick comes an eagerly-awaited collaboration of artists at the very forefront of British theatre.

Spymonkey’s hilariously anarchic physical comedy and the playful storytelling of Kneehigh artistic director Emma Rice and writing partner Carl Grose, combine to create an outrageous no-holdsbarred subversion of the quintessential Greek tragedy – a tale of forbidden lust, accidental incest, violent murder and the ultimate dysfunctional family: a jealous father, a messed-up son, and one mother of a brilliant comedy.

“Four of the greatest clowns currently working in Britain.”

PHOENIX DANCE THEATRE Crossing Points Works by Aletta Collins, Kwesi Johnson, Henri Oguike and Ana Luján Sánchez

Following the success of 2011’s Reflected, Phoenix Dance Theatre return to the Playhouse with the company’s latest exciting mixed programme.

Crossing Points features the world premières of two contrasting dance works. Inspired by Magritte’s iconic painting The Son of Man, Ana Luján Sánchez’s Catch immerses the audience in an abstract, surreal world filled with intricate, dynamic and thought provoking choreography.

SoundClash by Kwesi Johnson sees the dancers mimic the complex and beautiful patterns created by sound waves when made visible. The bill also features the return of Henri Oguike’s thrilling Signal, and another chance to see Aletta Collins’s sassy, hilarious modern Phoenix classic Maybe Yes Maybe, Maybe No Maybe.

O for a muse of fire, that would ascend The brightest heaven of invention: A kingdom for a stage, princes to act, And monarchs to behold the swelling scene.

This collaboration with Shakespeare’s Globe will launch a national tour of Henry V – Shakespeare’s masterpiece about the turbulence of war and the art of peace.

Portraying the romantic story of Henry’s campaign to recapture the English possessions in France, the charismatic King’s ambitions are challenged by a host of vivid characters caught up in the real horrors of war.

Directed by Dominic Dromgoole, the play which opened the new Globe celebrates the power of language, summoning into life courts, pubs, ships and battlefields.

Shared Experience, Nottingham Playhouse and West Yorkshire Playhouse, In Association with Oxford Playhouse Present

MARY SHELLEY

By Helen Edmundson Directed by Polly Teale World Première Tour

Daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft.

Lover of Percy Bysshe Shelley.

Author of Frankenstein…

Shared Experience brings to life the astonishing tale of Mary Shelley – and how she came to write one of the greatest stories ever told, aged just 19. This new play explores Shelley’s remarkable life: her controversial philosopher father, her scandalous elopement aged 16 and how she wrote a novel, so radical in its ideology, that in 1817 she changed the literary landscape forever.

Shared Experience are renowned for bringing classics to the stage in bold, imaginative ways.

For Mary Shelley they reunite with award-winning writer Helen Edmundson whose groundbreaking adaptations (Mill on the Floss, Coram Boy, Swallows and Amazons) have inspired generations of theatre makers.

Coming Soon to the Playhouse Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse Presents

The Norman Conquests

By Alan Ayckbourn Directed by Philip Wilson

“There are many blissful moments in these three plays, concerning a family gathering in a crumbling country house that left me physically helpless with hilarity.” The Daily Telegraph on The Norman Conquests

This brilliantly interconnected trilogy of comedies justifies Ayckbourn’s status as the world’s most performed – and perhaps most loved – living playwright.

You can enjoy Table Manners, Living Together and Round and Round the Garden individually, but the experience is greatly enriched by seeing all three.

HHHHH The Guardian on Philip Wilson’s production of Noises Off, 2007

Ticket deals and packages to see all three plays will be available.

More details will be announced in early 2012.

MAY TO JUNE 2012

A New Everyman for Everyone By the end of 2013, Liverpool will have a new Everyman, designed by architects Haworth Tompkins and described by Liverpool City Council Leader Joe Anderson as “a vital redevelopment for the City’s future”.

The fully accessible and environmentally sustainable new Everyman will combine the trademark ‘thrust’ layout and basement Bistro with many new facilities.

Light, open front-of-house spaces and a pavement café; rehearsal and workshop facilities; a new space for our work with young people and community groups, and a workspace for writers will allow the whole building to be a vibrant, creative hub, by day and night. And a beautiful façade, representing the people of Liverpool, will express the fact that this is truly an Everyman for everyone.

Construction is now underway on the expanded Hope Street site, and you can follow progress via a webcam which is providing real-time footage and time-lapse pictures thanks to NW Systems.

The live webcam feed can be viewed on our website at www.everymanplayhouse.com

If you would like to receive our regular progress reports, throughout the build and as we approach the opening season, please email ev4everyone@ everymanplayhouse.com.

EXCUSE ME

ILLYRIA By Bryony Lavery

What is it like to arrive in a foreign country with no grasp of the language? No idea of the culture?

With nothing but a suitcase full of your most treasured belongings?

British journalist Maria Vargas is sent to the country of Illyria to interview the wife of the country’s dictator. However, things don’t go according to plan and Maria suddenly finds herself in the middle of a world of darkness, violence and torture in the war torn country of Illyria.

YEP join forces with youth theatres from across Merseyside, to create a promenade performance that focuses on the refugees and asylum seekers that have arrived in Liverpool over the years.

We are looking for suitcases to use in the production of Excuse Me so if you have an old one you’d like to donate to the performance please e-mail Viv on v.ocallaghan@everymanplayhouse.com

Theatre for Everyone We believe everyone, no matter what their age or experience, should have the opportunity to enjoy great theatre. Look out for the following symbols on show pages and in the diary at the back.

Accessible Performances

Audio description is a live

verbal commentary giving information on the visual elements of a production as it unfolds. It’s great for anyone who sometimes finds it difficult to see the details of a performance; you don’t have to be blind to make use of audio description. A description of the setting, costumes and a full touch tour of the set are also available before the performance starts.

Captioning is similar to television subtitling and converts the spoken word into text, which is displayed on a caption unit situated on or next to the stage.

The captions also include the name of the character who is speaking or singing and descriptions of any sound effects.

Captioning is a great way for anyone who sometimes finds it difficult to hear the actors speaking to still enjoy coming to the theatre.

Audio brochure, Braille and Large Print format guides are available from the Box Office on request.
