The Center Presents THE CENTER PRESENTS WINTER 2019-20 THE CENTER For ten years, National Theatre Live has brought the best of British theatre to cinema screens around the world. Using state-of- the-art filming techniques, tailored to every play, NTLive brings each performance as it happens, in all its glory. From close-ups that capture every flicker of emotion, to sweeping wide shots of the stage. National Theatre Live broadcast its first theatre production from the National Theatre in London on the 25th of June 2009. The production was Phèdre, starring Helen Mirren. Since the first broadcast in 2009, National Theatre Live has broadcast from 21 stages across the UK and released over 80 titles. Almost 9,000,000 people have watched a National Theatre Live broadcast or screening around the world. Broadcasts have been seen in more than 3,500 different cinemas around the world, in more than 130,000 difference screenings. Though each broadcast is filmed in front of a live audience in the theater, cameras are carefully positioned throughout the auditorium to ensure that cinema audiences get the ‘best seat in the house’ view of each production. Where these cameras are placed is different for each broadcast, to make sure that cinema audiences enjoy the best possible experience every time. Satellites allow the productions to be broadcast live to cinemas throughout the UK, as well as many European venues. Other venues view the broadcasts ‘as live’ according to their time zone, or at a later date.

Written by one of Britain’s best-loved playwrights Alan Bennett (The History Boys, The Lady in the Van), this epic play was also adapted into a BAFTA Award-winning film following its premiere on stage in 1991. The cast of this new production includes Olivier Award-winners Mark Gatiss (Sherlock, Wolf Hall, NT Live Coriolanus) in the title role, and Adrian Scarborough (Gavin and Stacey, Upstairs Downstairs, After the Dance). It’s 1786 and King George III is the most powerful man in the world. But his behavior is becoming increasingly erratic as he succumbs to fits of lunacy. With the King’s mind unraveling at a dramatic pace, ambitious politicians and the scheming Prince of Wales threaten to undermine the power of the Crown.

He is joined by his two brothers and an American epic begins. 163 years later, the firm they establish – Lehman Brothers – spectacularly collapses into bankruptcy, and triggers the largest financial crisis in history.

Written and performed by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag, Killing Eve) and directed by Vicky Jones, Fleabag is a rip-roaring look at some sort of woman living her sort of life. Fleabag may seem oversexed, emotionally unfiltered and self-obsessed, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. With family and friendships under strain and a guinea pig café struggling to keep afloat, Fleabag suddenly finds herself with nothing to lose. Playing to sold-out audiences in New York and London, don’t miss your chance to see this ‘legitimately hilarious show’ (New Yorker), broadcast live to a cinema near you.

The play follows three intricately connected stories. Hortense yearns for a new life away from rural Jamaica, Gilbert dreams of becoming a lawyer, and Queenie longs to escape her Lincolnshire roots.

ALAN BENNETT Born on the 9th May 1934 in Leeds, Yorkshire, Bennett attended Leeds Modern school. In 1957 he graduated from Exeter College, Oxford with a first class degree in medieval history. He was a junior lecturer at Magdalen College, Oxford from 1960-62. His career has included acting, writing and directing across the stage, television, film and the radio, with a focus of exploring the lives of ordinary people. In his introduction to The History Boys, Bennett talks of how his own experiences influenced his writing the play. The school the boys attended was very much like his own school, although he was not to learn Irwin’s methods until his final exams at University. But it was the characters with which he began. In an interview for the National Theatre in 2005, he states that whilst the two characters of Irwin and Hector probably do say something about the contrasting methods of the education system, he simply wanted to put these two characters together a see what happened. When asked what he wanted audiences to take away with them in the same interview, Bennett answered: “I’d like the audience to come away wanting to spend more time in the company of the characters in the play. I’d like them to come away having understood and forgiven Hector and even Irwin.

  • The Paradise, Season 2 on MASTERPIECE Sundays, September 28 - November 16, 2014 on PBS
    There’s Trouble in Paradise! The Paradise, Season 2 On MASTERPIECE Sundays, September 28 - November 16, 2014 on PBS Order the carriage, raise your credit limit, and hurry to town: The Paradise is reopening for business! Joanna Vanderham (Blackwood) and Emun Elliott (Prometheus) return as the fairy-tale couple who found true love at a glamorous Victorian-era department store. The Paradise, Season 2, airs in eight dazzling episodes on MASTERPIECE, Sundays, September 28 - November 16, 2014 at 8pm ET on PBS. In last season’s thrilling climax, Elliott’s character, Moray, proprietor of The Paradise, gave up his wealthy bride-to-be on the brink of the altar to fall into the arms of his heart’s desire—his lowly sales assistant Denise, played by Vanderham. It’s a beautifully improbable match, and The Paradise, Season 2, tells what happens next. Critics absolutely adored Season 1. “The Paradise … sparkles and shimmers … it looks wonderful,” marveled The New York Daily News. “Compelling [and] addictive,” enthused The Philadelphia Enquirer. Variety called it “impeccably cast, extremely handsome … another first-rate costume drama.” And The Wall Street Journal discerned a “tale of love, ambition and dark competition for power, set in a glitzy world of opulence.” Elaine Cassidy (A Room with a View) reprises her role as Katherine, Moray’s jilted fiancée and the daughter of his chief creditor. Ben Daniels (House of Cards) stars as Katherine’s recently acquired husband, Tom Weston, an ex-army officer with an iron will, an excruciating wound, and a ruthless sense of honor. He also has an endearing young daughter from a previous marriage, Flora (Edie Whitehead).
