Summer 1974. A well-intentioned tea party descends into chaos. Wealthy, unfulfilled housewife Diana arranges a gathering of old friends to cheer up bereaved Colin, whose fiancée drowned two months earlier. Paul, her bullying, self-absorbed husband, has recently had a dalliance with Evelyn, the glamorous wife of his friend and incompetent business associate, John. The party is completed by long-suffering Marge, who has left Gordon, her hypochondriac spouse, ailing at home. Preparations for the party spark tensions and open old wounds. As lingering resentments and deep-rooted jealousies surface, an unexpectedly cheerful Colin strolls into the mayhem. Acerbic and painfully funny, Absent Friends explores friendship, marriage and what it ultimately means to be happy. In one of his finest plays, Ayckbourn’s craftsmanship and acute social observation have never been sharper or more biting. Alan Ayckbourn is an Olivier and Tony Award winning playwright who has written 78 plays, more than half of which have been produced in London’s West End as well as around the world. London Classic Theatre has established a reputation for producing bold, imaginative work of the highest quality. Absent Friends celebrates their 15th Anniversary as a touring company and will be their first visit to Richmond Theatre.

CELEBRATING THE 21ST ANNIVERSARY OF THE NATION’S FAVOURITE MOVIE
West end cast returnS by popular demand
Bill Kenwright presents
bill kenwright presents A NEW STAGE PRODUCTION INSPIRED BY THE CLASSIC MOVIE BASED ON THE SHORT NOVEL BY
STEPHEN KING ADAPTED BY OWEN O’NEILL AND DAVE JOHNS
Oscar Wilde’s much loved and brilliantly witty masterpiece The Importance of Being Earnest returns to Richmond for five performances only, following a sell-out run last year. The production stars members of the West End cast including Nigel Havers, Christine Kavanagh and Siân Phillips performing as The Bunbury Company of Players. This new production is directed by Lucy Bailey, designed by William Dudley with added material written by Simon Brett, lighting design by Oliver Fenwick, and composition and sound design by Tom Mills. The Importance of Being Earnest is known to elegantly lampoon the hypocrisies of a Victorian society and opens as two bachelors, the dependable John Worthing, J.P. and upper class playboy Algernon Moncrieff, feel compelled to create different identities in order to pursue two eligible ladies Cecily Cardew and Gwendolyn Fairfax. The hilarious misadventures which result from their subterfuge; their brushes with the redoubtable Lady Bracknell and the uptight Miss Prism result in a plot that twists and fizzles with some of the finest dialogue to be found in theatre.

FEAR WILL HOLD YOU PRISONER
HOPE CAN SET YOU FREE
Despite protests of innocence, Andy Dufresne is handed a double life sentence for the brutal murder of his wife and her lover. Incarcerated at the notorious Shawshank facility, he quickly learns that no one can survive alone. Andy strikes up an unlikely friendship with the prison fixer Red and things take a slight turn for the better. However, when Warden Stammas decides to bully Andy into subservience and exploit his talents for accountancy, a desperate plan is quietly hatched. Widely considered the nation’s favourite movie starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman, Stephen King’s classic story takes to the stage in a new production which examines desperation, injustice, friendship and hope behind the claustrophobic bars of a maximum security penitentiary.

a New musical comedy from Maureen Chadwick
Opera & Ballet International presents Ellen Kent’s Opera Festival
Book by Maureen Chadwick Music & lyrics by Kath Gotts Directed by Anna Linstrum Designed by David Farley
bizet carmen
A sizzling new musical comedy from Maureen Chadwick (creator and writer of hit TV dramas Waterloo Road, Footballers’ Wives and Bad Girls), with music and lyrics by Kath Gotts (Bad Girls The Musical and The Realness), directed by Anna Linstrum (High Society, Sound of Music and Spend, Spend, Spend). Crush is set in a 1960s boarding school with a proud tradition of free expression - but when a deeply conservative new Headmistress imposes sweeping reforms, replacing the school motto ‘Do what you do well’ with ‘Learn or depart’, it’s time for the Upper Sixth to follow in the footsteps of their Suffragette founder and prove that rebel spirits can’t be crushed. And star pupil Susan Smart has to learn that she won’t find true love until she’s brave enough to stand up and be counted. This battle for the soul of the school gives a new twist to Malory Towers and The Girl’s Own Annual, and invites young hearts of all ages to run free in a fight to the finish with hockey sticks to the fore, toe-tapping tunes, witty lyrics and soaring ballads.
‘Kath Gotts strikes me as the brightest new prospect for British musical theatre in years’ Charles Spencer, THE Daily Telegraph
This dazzling production features Bizet’s unforgettable melodies including The Toreador’s Song. Carmen also includes a replica of Seville’s main square with fountains, flowers and orange trees. A Big Broad Productions and Belgrade Theatre Coventry Co-Production

Music & Lyrics by Robert Lopez & Jeff Marx
Book by Based on an Original Concept by Jeff Whitty Robert Lopez & Jeff Marx
This production is given by permission of JOSEF WEINBERGER LTD on behalf of MUSIC THEATRE INTERNATIONAL of New York
Winner of the Tony Awards ‘Triple Crown’ for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, Avenue Q is part flesh, part felt and packed with heart. Following five years in the West End, sell-out runs worldwide and a smash hit tour in 2014 (packed with mischief, bad behaviour and political incorrectness) this hugely entertaining show is hitting the road again in 2015! Created by Jeff Marx and Robert Lopez (Co-creator of Book of Mormon and writer of the songs for Disney’s Frozen) Avenue Q is an irresistibly charming musical which tells the story of the loveable characters on a downtown New York street trying to make sense of life’s burning issues. Hilarious, cheeky and uproariously entertaining, with a terrific batch of songs performed by a cast of hugely talented performers and puppets, Avenue Q is the musical like no other. So don’t let your life suck - book your tickets today! www.avenuequk.com @avenuequktour
