  • Natural Pursuits – the Screen Dramas of Simon Gray Television Season at BFI Southbank in August 2011
    PRESS RELEASE June 2011 11/49 Natural Pursuits – The Screen Dramas of Simon Gray Television Season at BFI Southbank in August 2011 BFI Southbank celebrates the tragi-comic screen dramas of the late Simon Gray. A writer of immense wit and intellectual charm whose razor-sharp dialogue is unsurpassed. The month long season features some of Gray’s most celebrated work including screenings of Unnatural Pursuits (1992), After Pilkington (1987) and They Never Slept (1991) which feature performances by British acting elite including Alan Bates, Edward Fox and Miranda Richardson. Following the screening of They Never Slept, a panel of guests including producer Kenith Trodd, and directors Udayan Prasad and Christopher Morahan will discuss his great contribution to television drama and the theatre illustrated with clips of some of his early and rare television plays to be chaired by Broadcaster Matthew Sweet. After the screening of Butley on Sunday 14 Aug, Lindsay Posner, director of the 40th anniversary revival of the play currently running at the Duchess Theatre will also be welcomed to the BFI stage for a Q&A. Gray wrote prolifically from the mid-60s onwards for both the West End stage (Otherwise Engaged, Quartermaine’s Terms, The Late Middle Classes, Butley) and for television, where such important early successes such as Death of a Teddy Bear, Man in a Sidecar and The Caramel Crisis were carelessly wiped. His most fertile period writing specifically for TV occurred between 1975 and 1993 during a close collaboration with producer Kenith Trodd and four major directors, Michael Lindsay- Hogg, Christopher Morahan, Udayan Prasad and Pat O’Connor.

This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius.” Lyrics from “Aquarius” from HAIR The Zodiac The word zodiac is believed to come from the Greek zodiakos, which can mean “wheel of life” or “wheel of creatures.” There are twelve signs of the zodiac; each has a time or age associated with it. An age is believed to last about 2,150 years - give or take a few. The age is determined by when the constellation appears on the dawn of the spring equinox. Once all twelve ages of the zodiac occur, the cycle repeats. There are certain characteristics for each sign of the zodiac and some astrologers believe these characteristics influence what is happening in the world, that the signs and ages of the zodiac have an effect on all human life and the planet as well. A house in the zodiac is a time when the sun, moon and planets travel through a section of the sky. Just like each sign of the zodiac, the houses have various characteristics or meanings. The seventh house is a time of cooperation and opposition, meaning cooperation or compromising with those who oppose you and in all Do you read your horoscope? relationships.

CURRAN TO HOST THE WEST COAST PREMIERE OF THE CRITICALLY-ACCLAIMED PLAY THE JUNGLE MARCH 26 - MAY 19, 2019 SAN FRANCISCO (January 11, 2019) — Following widely-acclaimed, sensation-stirring, and sold-out engagements in London and New York, Carole Shorenstein Hays and Sonia Friedman Productions with Tom Kirdahy today announced that the West Coast Premiere of the Good Chance Theatre, National Theatre and Young Vic production of THE JUNGLE by Joe Murphy and Joe Robertson, will take place at San Francisco’s Curran this spring. Under the direction of Stephen Daldry and Justin Martin, the strictly limited engagement begins Tuesday March 26, 2019 and will run through Sunday, May 19, 2019. Tickets for THE JUNGLE are $25—$165 and go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, January 29, 2019, with presale access available for existing Curran subscribers.

Take a seat where men, women and children fleeing war and persecution created a world offering warm hospitality, amidst squalor and danger. After taking London and New York by storm, THE JUNGLE arrives on the West Coast transforming the traditional proscenium theater into Miriam Buether’s award-winning set design as seen in the West End.
