FINISHING the PICTURE by Arthur Miller
Press Information ! ! ! VIBRANT NEW WRITING | UNIQUE REDISCOVERIES June–August Season 2018 The UK premiere of Arthur Miller’s final play FINISHING THE PICTURE by Arthur Miller. Directed by Phil Willmott. Set Design by Isabella Van Braeckel. Costume Design by Penn O’Gara. Lighting Design by Rachel Sampley. Sound Design by Nicola Chang. Presented by Nastazja Somers for The Phil Willmott Company in association with the Finborough Theatre. Cast: Patrick Bailey. Stephen Billington. Jeremy Drakes. Nicky Goldie. Rachel Handshaw. Oliver Le Sueur. Tony Wredden. "She is frightened and resentful and angry – and we’ve got about half an hour to cure all three.” Following his critically acclaimed, up-close reinvention of Arthur Miller’s Incident at Vichy and sell-out revival of The American Clock, multi-award-winning director Phil Willmott brings the intense focus of the intimate Finborough Theatre to bear on Miller’s final work, Finishing The Picture, opening for a four week limited season on Tuesday, 12 June 2018 (Press Nights: Thursday, 14 June 2018 and Friday, 15 June 2018 at 7.30pm.) As the women of today’s Hollywood campaign for dignity and equality, Finishing the Picture is a razor sharp psychological study of an abused, misunderstood female star and the havoc her unpredictability brings to a film set in 1961. Inspired by the filming of The Misfits, the screenplay Miller wrote for his then wife, Marilyn Monroe, and focused on the bemused and exasperated director, screen writer, producer, acting coaches and crew that closely mirror the real life production team of The Misfits – and whilst leading lady Kitty shares many characteristics with Monroe herself, Finishing the Picture – Arthur Miller’s very final play – is a devastating indictment of how a male-dominated movie industry inadvertently destroyed a vulnerable young woman, even as they transformed her into a screen goddess, and how they were unable to deal with the wreckage they caused.

With the discovery of the Rose Theatre’s architectural foundations in 1989, and the widely promoted opening of Shakespeare’s Globe in 1997, popular and academic interest escalated further. From the late 1980s, a significant volume of criticism has been published that addresses the physical layout, audience composition, and geographical placement of the sixteenth- and seventeenth- century English playhouses.1 Yet despite, or perhaps because of, such intense interest, the study of spatial representation in the early modern theatres has been a rather disparate affair.

Designed by Alex Marker. Costume Design by Eleanor Tipler. Sound Design by Dominic Bilkey. Presented by Two’s Company and Karl Sydow, in association with Tilly Films and Neil McPherson for the Finborough Theatre. Cast: Mia Austen. Sebastian Calver. John Sackville. Patience Tomlinson. “There’s a devil inside you egging you on to put a stop to his happiness – and that’s why you’d want me to come away with you, isn’t it?” The London premiere of Philip King’s 1970 play Go Bang Your Tambourine opens at the Finborough Theatre for a four week limited season on Tuesday, 6 August 2019 (Press Nights: Thursday, 8 August 2019 and Friday, 9 August 2019 at 7.30pm). Young David Armstrong misses his mother. Following her death, he now lives alone in their North Country house, a devoted member of the Salvation Army. But tongues start to wag when David advertises for a lodger, and good-hearted, attractive Bess, a local barmaid, moves in. But when David’s estranged Casanova of a father decides to move back in, uninvited and unwanted, the impossible situation quickly comes to a head… Seen in London for the first time, Philip King’s touching domestic family drama is a new insight into the work of a classic British playwright. Playwright Philip King (1904-1979) was born in Yorkshire. Known as both playwright and actor, he is best known as the author of the classic 1944 farce See How They Run.
