Edmond de Bergerac is the hilarious story behind Cyrano de Bergerac. Set in Paris in 1897, playwright Edmond Rostand (Freddie Fox) is approaching his thirtieth birthday with no new plays but a whole lot of worries. He has not written anything in two years and in desperation has promised a new play to the acting superstar, Constant Coquelin (Henry Goodman). A desperate Edmond draws on his problems to write a new comedy. It will be an unbelievable tale about the demands of his producers, the whims of the actresses, the jealousy of his wife, his doubting colleagues and the romantic adventures of his best friend. It shall be called Cyrano de Bergerac! The original production of Edmond continues to play to packed houses in Paris at the Theatre du Palais-Royale. Alexis Michalik will receive two UK premières of his work this season. Alongside Edmond de Bergerac at Birmingham Rep and on tour, Intra Muros will open at the Park Theatre, London from 3 April – 4 May, directed by Ché Walker. Michalik is an author, actor and director with previous writing credits including Le Porteur d’Histoire which has run for over 1500 performances to date and played around the world, as well as Le Cercle Des Illusionnistes. For these two pieces, Michalik received the Beaumarchais du Figaro Prize, the Jeune Théâtre de l’Académie Française Award and two coveted Molière Awards. He wrote and directed Edmond in 2016, winning five Molière Awards, having just celebrated its 800th performance in Paris and recently released as a feature film. Intra Muros is his most recent work, having opened in Paris, 2017 at the Théâtre 13 before transferring to the larger Théâtre La Pépinière, where it continues to sell out today. Edmond de Bergerac will be designed by Robert Innes Hopkins. The movement director is Liam Steel and the composer is Dave Price. Sound design is by Dan Hoole and lighting design by Rick Fisher. Voice director is Stephen Kemble, casting director is Amy Ball and Jack McMahon is the assistant director. Produced in association with Nicolas Talar.

  • Transcript for Professor Gernsbacher's Lecture Video: “Why Do We Binge-Watch?”
    Transcript for Professor Gernsbacher’s Lecture Video: “Why Do We Binge-Watch?” Ever had that experience of binge-watching a TV series, and you become so absorbed that you forget to eat lunch or you miss your subway stop? Or you keep clicking for the next episode and when you look up, the house has gotten dark around you, and you realize you’ve been watching for hours? Oh, wait just a minute. I read that wrong. Here’s the correct quote: CLICK - Ever had that experience READING A NOVEL when you become so absorbed that you forget to eat lunch or you miss your subway stop? CLICK - Or you’re TURNING THE PAGES so fast, when you look up, the house has gotten dark around you, and you realize you’ve been squinting to see the words. CLICK - We call this “getting lost in a book,” and we could all name a novel that has caused us to CLICK - Get lost in a book. In a Two Thousand and Fourteen article on the website, Thought Catalog, Francesca Saunders urges us to QUOTE “Curl up in your bed, on the floor, the backseat of a car, the plastic bench of a train. Open up a book and … Fall so deeply into this imagined world, [that you] forget where you are. You stop hearing anything that isn’t on the page in front of you.” UNQUOTE CLICK - What does getting lost in a book feel like? Saunders relates that QUOTE Getting lost in a book is like getting hit by a truck, like waking up at 10 pm from a nap.
