The Sunset Limited will be directed by Olivier and Tony Award-winner Terry Johnson (Mrs Henderson Presents, La Cage aux Folles and The Graduate). Cormac McCarthy's other celebrated works include The Road, All the Pretty Horses, Blood Meridian and No Country for Old Men. This production also marks the first time Cormac McCarthy’s work has been seen on a London stage. Gary Beadle has appeared in a number of TV dramas including Patrick Melrose, Death in Paradise, Silent Witness, Grantchester, and as a regular for several years in EastEnders. He was most recently on stage in The Treatment at the Almeida Theatre where his credits also include The Testaments. Other theatre includes Les Blancs (National Theatre), Now We Are Here (Young Vic) and a profoundly affectionate, passionate devotion to someone (Royal Court). Jasper Britton is a prolific stage and screen actor, who recently appeared in celebrated Agatha Christie play Witness for the Prosecution at County Hall. Other theatre highlights include playing Johnny ‘Rooster’ Byron in Jez Butterworth’s Jerusalem at the Watermill Theatre and Bolingbroke in Richard II with the RSC in London and New York.

In 2010, Johnson won the Tony Award for Best Director of a Musical for La Cage aux Folles. Cormac McCarthy is one of America’s greatest living novelists. His 2006 novel The Road won him the Pulitzer Prize, and the earlier No Country for Old Men was adapted as a 2007 film of the same name that won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Blood Meridian, another work by McCarthy, was listed by TIME magazine as one of the greatest English-language works since the 1920s. His plays include The Sunset Limited and The Stonemason. Two men meet on a subway platform; the chance encounter instantly changing the trajectory of both their lives. Thrown together, their conversation quickly turns to the most essential and existential questions facing humanity. While their beliefs seem irreconcilable, the answers they seek could mean the difference between life and death. The Sunset Limited will play at the Boulevard Theatre from January 16, with press night on January 21. -ENDS- For further information please contact The Corner Shop PR on 020 7831 7657 Laura Myers | Natasha Krstic-Howe LISTINGS THE SUNSET LIMITED by Cormac McCarthy Directed by Terry Johnson First Performance: 16 January 2020 Opening Night: 21 January 2020 Monday – Saturday at 7.30pm, Thursday and Saturday matinees at 2.30pm https://boulevardtheatre.co.uk/whats-on/the-sunset-limited/ Boulevard Theatre 6 Walker’s Court Soho W1F 0BT NOTES TO EDITORS BIOGRAPHIES GARY BEADLE – BLACK Theatre Credits Include: The Treatment (Almeida), A Profoundly, Affectionate, Passionate, Devotion to Someone (-noun) (Royal Court), Now We Are Here (Young Vic), Les Blancs (National Theatre), Hapgood (Hampstead Theatre), The Whipping Man (Theatre Royal Plymouth), The Rise and Shine of Comrade Fiasco (Gate Theatre), Banksy: The Room in the Elephant (Tobacco Factory, Edinburgh and Tour), You Know Who You Are (Talawa Theatre), Blue Remembered Hills (Chichester Festival), Sucker Punch (Royal Court), Family Man (Stratford East), Top Dog Under Dog (Sheffield Crucible), The Memory of Water (Watford Palace), Generations of the Dead in the Abyss of Coney Island Madness (Contact Theatre), Ticker Tape And V Signs (7:84 Theatre Co), Welcome Home Jacko (BTC New York), Moby Dick (Royal Exchange Manchester), God’s Second in Command (Royal Court), Alterations (Stratford East), and Black Poppies (National Studio).Television Credits Include: Small Axe, Dark Mon£y, Summer of Rockets, Hatton Gardens, Grantchester Silent Witness, Patrick Melrose, Death In Paradise, The Interceptor, Doctors, Common Ground, Crime Stories, Hustle, Casualty, Little Britain, Holby City, Eastenders, Family Affairs, The Bill, Absolutely Fabulous, Born to Run, Glam Metal Detectives, Shall I Be Mother, Murphy’s Mob, Honeymoon, Just Like Mohicans, Radical Chambers, Making Out, Crying Game, Wail of the Banshee, Space Virgins From Planet Sex Queen of the Wild and The Detectives.

    For Immediate Release Contact: Alvin Kupperman [email protected] 323-333-4707 The Sunset Limited, by Cormac McCarthy, Pulls into The Coachella Valley Repertory Theatre (CV REP) But when the train leaves the station, whose soul will go with it? One man’s journey spurs another man’s outlook on faith…it’s never just black and white! “This is mind expanding theatre at it’s best…” Tom Williams, Chicagocritic.com __________________________________________________________ Rancho Mirage, CDA –Feb. 1, 2013 - The Coachella Valley Repertory Theatre (CV REP) is announcing its third in-house production of their 2012-13 season, The Sunset Limited, by Cormac McCarthy, scheduled for a three week run at the CV REP theatre in Rancho Mirage from March 20-April 7, 2013. Written by Pulitzer Prize–winning novelist, Cormac McCarthy, (The Road, No Country for Old Men), and directed by CV REP Artistic Director, Ron Celona, The Sunset Limited is an edge-of-your seat drama about “White” a Caucasian, atheistic professor, and “Black” an Afro-American ex-convict/evangelical Christian who are brought together by desperate circumstances on a New York City subway platform. The play begins soon after “Black” brings “White” back to his Harlem apartment where they lock horns in a high-stakes, electrifying faith-versus-reason debate. “There are some Playwright’s words that have to be experienced in person….an actor’s dream to share, and an audience’s moment to be a part of the collaboration of thoughtful words and the human spirit. Cormac McCarthy’s writing does just that!, “ says CV Repertory ‘s Artistic Director, Ron Celona.

The film’s screenplay, by Hanif Kureishi, was a landmark debut that received a BAFTA nomination and established Kureishi as a major screenwriting talent. The film became an international success and received wide critical acclaim. The film critic Roger Ebert reviewed the film on its US release and is reproduced here in an edited version. Release yeaR: 1985 Runtime: 97 mins DiRectoR: Stephen Frears PRoDUCERs: Sarah Radclyffe, Tim Bevan scReenwRiteR: Hanif Kureishi hen people told me laundry.

  • Cormac Mccarthy's Suttree
    Missing in Portuguese: Prolegomenon to a Translation of Cormac McCarthy‟s Suttree Michael Scott Doyle (University of North Carolina at Charlotte) Missing in Portuguese is a translation of Cormac McCarthy‟s fourth novel, Suttree.1 Why should this be of concern? Because Portuguese is a major world language,2 Cormac McCarthy is one of the most acclaimed contemporary American novelists, and Suttree, published in 1979, is one of his most lauded novels. McCarthy—winner of a prestigious MacArthur Fellowship (1981), also known as the “genius grant,” the National Book Award (1992) and National Book Critics Circle Award (1992) for his novel All the Pretty Horses, the James Tait Black Memorial Prize (2007), and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction (2007) for The Road—is a high priest among American writers. While eight of his ten novels have been translated into Portuguese—O Guarda do Pomar in 1996 [The Orchard Keeper, 1965], Filho de Deus, 1994 [Child of God, 1974], Meridiano de Sangue, 2006 [Blood Meridian, 1985], Todos os Belos Cavalos, 1993 [All the Pretty Horses, 1992], A Travessia, 1999 [The Crossing, 1994], Cidades da Planície, 2001 [Cities of the Plain, 1998], Onde os Velhos Não Têm Vez, 2007 [No Country for Old Men, 2005] and A Estrada, 2007 [The Road, 2006]—Suttree awaits its rightful rendition into this major literary language as well.3 The translation-to-be will require the talents of a master wordsmith in order to felicitously bring the novel‟s many complexities into Portuguese, and doing so will enrich the library of world literature available in the Portuguese language.

How does theatre serve our community?” Each of our selections for our eighth season will give a different answer to these questions. Based on the belief that mankind created theatre to serve a spiritual need in our community, our riskiest and most challenging season yet will ask us to face mankind’s deepest mysteries. We open the season with one of the most powerful writers of our time, Cormac McCarthy (All the Pretty Horses, The Road, No Country for Old Men). The play, billed as “a novel in play form” brings us into a startling encounter on a New York subway platform which leads two strangers to a run-down tenement where they engage in a brilliant verbal duel on a subject no less compelling than the meaning of life. TV and film star Carl Lumbly (Jesus Hopped the ‘A’ Train, Alias, Cagney & Lacey) returns to the SF Playhouse to reunite with local favorite Charles Dean (White Christmas, Awake and Sing!) after having performed together in Berkeley Rep’s 1997 production of Macbeth.
