  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Saffron Burrows, Oliver Chris and Belinda Stewart-Wilson join cast of Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell My Daughter About Men 29 January 2020 Shakespeare’s Globe is delighted to announce further casting for Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell My Daughter About Men, a new black comedy by actor and writer Lorien Haynes, directed by Tara Fitzgerald (Brassed Off, Game of Thrones), being hosted in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse on Thursday 20 February. Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell My Daughter About Men traces a woman’s relationship history backwards, exploring the impact of sexual assault, addiction and teen pregnancy on her adult relationships. Presented in association with RISE and The Circle, all profits from this event will go towards supporting survivors of sexual violence. Thanks in huge part to RISE’s work, the event will also mark the planned introduction of the Worldwide Sexual Violence Survivor Rights United Nations Resolution later this year, which addresses the global issue of sexual violence and pens into existence the civil rights of millions of survivors. Nobel-Prize nominee and founder of Rise, Amanda Nguyen, will introduce the evening. A silent auction will also take place on the night to highlight and raise awareness for the support networks available to those in need. Audience members will be able to bid on props from the production as well as a selection of especially commissioned rotary phones, exclusively designed by acclaimed British artists including Harland Miller, Natasha Law, Bella Freud and Emma Sargeant. The money raised by each phone will go to a rape crisis helpline chosen by the artist.

Our cause is to celebrate and interrogate Shakespeare’s transformative impact on the world, while our two theatres allow us to experience the architectural playing conditions under which Shakespeare’s plays were originally performed. 2018 was a year of artistic leadership change and further strategic development. Our 2017 review looked forward to a new era of artistic endeavour on Bankside, one closely integrated with our other activities, but creatively distinct; historically aware, but radically contemporary.

  • One Man, Two Guvnors - Screened at Cornerhouse
    One Man, Two Guvnors - screened at Cornerhouse One Man, Two Guvnors by National Theatre at Cornerhouse Reviewed by Anne Ryan September 2011 The reviews promised one of the summer's funniest plays, 'Carlo Goldoni meets Harold Pinter in a riotous farce set to skiffle', and as summer slips away I think that's what we got. The cast headed by James Corden, of 'Gavin and Stacey' fame, seem to be enjoying themselves as much as the audience, although for those of us watching the filmed performance, we definitely missed out on the interaction which the theatre performance must have. It is said that the director Nicholas Hytner had to ask the actors to stick to Richard Bean's script as they were having such a good time ad-libbing! The story, from the 18h century comedy by Carlo Goldoni, is a farce in the tradition of the 1 / 2 One Man, Two Guvnors - screened at Cornerhouse servant who tricks his master. Our hero, Francis Henshall is fired from his skiffle band and becomes the minder to a small time gangster who is really a woman posing as her dead brother – who had been killed by her public school boyfriend. Francis spots the chance of an extra income by working for this toff and feeding his gargantuan appetite. His task is to keep the two masters apart. Once you have got this straight the fun begins – an evening of traditional farce and Carry On style word games. Corden's comic genius is matched by Jemima Rooper as Roscoe/Rachel Crabbe - the transvestite crook, and Oliver Chris as Stanley Stubbers who bears a disturbing resemblance to David Cameron.
