SEASON 2015 DRAMATIC BY NATURE
Il trovatore VERDI Sung in Italian with English supertitles
When the infant son of Count di Luna falls ill after a visit from a gypsy woman, she is burned at the stake for witchcraft. Her daughter snatches the child intending to kill him, but, mad with grief, throws her own son onto the fire. Years later, she has brought the Count’s son up as her own and he and his elder brother, unaware of their relationship, are rivals for the beautiful Leonora. Jealousy, revenge, love and hate collide as the opera crashes towards its unstoppable conclusion. This restaging from director Martin Lloyd-Evans conjures up all the superstition and fearfulness of the Dark Ages. The stark, brooding lines of the set stand in contrast to the blood and thunder of Verdi’s music, providing a majestic backdrop for a cast and chorus of over 50. Full-blooded opera at its grandest, Verdi’s score is packed with a dizzying succession of familiar melodies, from the thrilling Anvil Chorus and Manrico’s stirring Di quella pira to the spine-tingling Miserere. The cast features some of the UK’s finest singers, including Roland Wood, Anne Mason and Matthew Best, leading British soprano Claire Rutter and renowned Welsh tenor Gwyn Hughes Jones. Tobias Ringborg conducts.

HEADER LAST YEAR’S GOESBIGGEST HERE HIT DIRECT FROM THE WEST END Olivier, Tony and Variety Award-winner, and Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee Tom Conti stars as ‘juror number 8’ (the role made famous by Henry Fonda) in Twelve Angry Men, following its record-breaking run at London’s Garrick Theatre. Tom Conti is one of the most respected and celebrated actors of his generation. Unforgettable as the leading man in Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence and Shirley Valentine, he has also appeared as myriad characters on screen and stage. He was recently voted Most Popular Actor in the West End alongside Dame Judi Dench.
Lauded as one of the great ‘must-see’ movies of all time, Reginald Rose’s Academy Award-nominated Twelve Angry Men was produced by and starred Henry Fonda. Twelve jurors have murder on their minds and a life in their hands as they decide the fate of a young delinquent accused of killing his father. But what appears to be an open and shut case soon becomes a dilemma for the twelve, as the tables turn every which way until the nail-biting climax...

The cast also includes Andrew Lancel (Coronation Street’s villainous Frank Foster and The Bill’s DI Neil Manson), Denis Lill (The Royal), Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto Jones in Torchwood) and Robert Duncan (Drop The Dead Donkey).

ARTHUR MILLER’S MASTERPIECE
BY
ARTHUR MILLER
To celebrate the centenary of Arthur Miller’s birth, Rapture Theatre, in association with The Beacon, present an exciting new production of this multi-award winning American masterpiece. Set just after the Second World War, in the backyard of Joe and Kate Keller, this gripping and passionate drama ranks as one of the classics of our time. Joe and Kate try to keep alive the memory of their son Larry, who disappeared in the war, by the planting of a tree in his honour. But Larry’s disappearance is not the only part of the family’s past that they can’t put behind them. Not everybody has forgotten the court case that put Joe’s partner in jail or the cracked engine heads Joe’s factory produced, which caused the deaths of twenty-one pilots. Following a stormy night, when Larry’s tree is blown down, Joe and Kate’s lives are threatened by a series of events that could destroy the very foundations of their lives. With all the tension of a taut thriller, All My Sons is a powerful drama that crackles with emotion and excitement!

ALL STAR CAST DIRECT FROM THE WEST END
Oscar Wilde’s much loved and brilliantly witty masterpiece The Importance of Being Earnest is touring the UK and 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.

Family Ticket £38 (2 adults, 2 children) + £5 for additional children This winter discover the enchanted, sparkling world of Christopher Hampson’s Cinderella, in the European premiere of this most beloved fairy tale. In her grief, the young Cinderella plants a rose at her mother’s graveside. When her father remarries, the future seems bleaker than ever. Her wicked stepmother is intent on pushing aside kind and beautiful Cinderella in favour of her two nasty step sisters. The course of true love never did run smooth but Cinderella does meet her prince and romance blossoms. Acclaimed New Zealand designer Tracy Grant Lord’s luxurious costumes and extravagant sets create a glittering fantasy world peopled with characters that are touching, funny and real. Dazzling against the light and dark of Prokofiev’s powerful score, this ravishing interpretation of the timeless rags-to-riches romance is everything you could wish for and more. The Scottish Ballet Orchestra accompanies live, performing the world famous Prokofiev score.
