  • 'Master Harold'... and the Boys
    Freehouse present ‘Master Harold’... and The Boys by Athol Fugard At the Southwark Playhouse 31 August - 18 September at 7.30pm Saturday Matinees at 3pm Press Night Tuesday 31st August at 7.30pm Directed by Joyce Branagh Cast Jonathan Broadbent Designed by Becky Hurst Ewart James Walters Lighting by Tony Simpson David Webber A lazy, rainy afternoon in Port Elizabeth. In a small deserted café the smooth, jazzy sounds of Sarah Vaughan can be heard coming from the jukebox. Whilst Hally does his homework, Sam and Willy scrub floors, practice the quickstep, and share their daydreams about better times. ‘There’s no collisions out there Hally. Nobody trips or stumbles or bumps into anybody else. That's what that moment is all about. To be one of those finalists on that dancefloor is like…like being in a dream about a world in which accidents don't happen.’ Athol Fugard (1932 -) is South Africa’s greatest living dramatist. Drawn from a haunting incident in his own childhood, Athol Fugard’s uniquely personal account of 1950’s South Africa won the Evening Standard Best Play Award 1983. This production of ‘Master Harold’… and The Boys enjoyed a successful run at the Bristol Old Vic, where it was first produced in 2002. Joyce Branagh has recently co-directed a production of Twelfth Night which is currently touring nationally, and she will be directing Summer Again at the Orange Tree in October. She has just been appointed as the Literary Director for Watford Palace Theatre Jonathan Broadbent has worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Royal National Theatre, Shared Experience, and Bristol Old Vic and recently in Mill on the Floss for Nottingham Playhouse.

In a new production commissioned by the Finborough Theatre, the rediscovery of Tony Harrison’s The Trackers of Oxyrhynchus in its first London production for nearly 30 years opens at the Finborough Theatre for a four week limited season on Tuesday, 3 January 2017 (Press Nights: Thursday, 5 January and Friday, 6 January 2017 at 7.30pm). Egypt, 1907. Two archaeologists, Bernard Grenfell and Arthur Hunt, are searching for ancient fragments of poetry and plays, next to an old rubbish heap.
