SPRING 2018 LISTINGS BOLD GIRLS

BY RONA MUNRO A Citizens Theatre production Belfast in the early 1990s. Against a backdrop of gunfire and police raids, four women whose lives have been turned upside down by the Troubles, carry on with everyday life.

But what starts out as a riotous night out, leads to the spilling of some very sobering truths in the early hours.

Packed with abrasive humour, Bold Girls is a story of love, friendship and betrayal.

Rona Munro, whose trilogy The James Plays written for the National Theatre of Scotland was a recent international hit, burst onto the scene in 1991 with this celebration of women’s lives in West Belfast.

The cast includes Deirdre Davis, best known to fans of BBC Scotland’s River City as Eileen Donachie, one of the show’s original characters and part of the Shieldinch community for 14 years. Director Richard Baron’s 2012 production of Rona Munro’s Iron for Firebrand was described as “thrilling” (List) and “Simply heart-stopping” (Scotsman).

Citizens Theatre Season Brochure SPRING 2018 LARGE PRINT RITA, SUE AND BOB TOO

BY ANDREA DUNBAR An Out of Joint, Octagon Theatre Bolton and Royal Court coproduction Best friends Rita and Sue get a lift home from married Bob after babysitting his kids. When he takes the scenic route and offers them a bit of fun, the three start a fling they each think they control.

Andrea Dunbar wrote her semi-autobiographical play when she was just 19. It’s an explosive portrait of girls facing an unpromising future who are offered a taste of adult adventure.

Celebrated for its wickedly funny dialogue and startling insight, Rita, Sue and Bob Too became a hit film in the 1980s.

Now, a crack cast including James Atherton (Hollyoaks, Coronation Street) and Taj Atwal (BBC1’s In the Club; Sky 1’s Stella; East is East in the West End) reclaim this masterpiece for the stage. The production comes to the Citizens Theatre following a run at London's Royal Court Theatre, where the play was first staged in 1982.

LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT

BY EUGENE O’NEILL A Citizens Theatre and HOME Manchester co-production by arrangement with Josef Weinberger Limited One of the greatest American dramas of the 20th century, Eugene O’Neill’s hugely moving and personal Pulitzer Prizewinning Long Day's Journey Into Night delves into the private lives and failings of a conflicted family, while revealing insights into his own upbringing.

The four members of the troubled Tyrone family each have their vice to dull their memories of their painful past and face their current trials. Over the course of one devastating day at their Connecticut summer home the resentments of the family are exposed, pushing their bonds to the limit.

Dominic Hill will direct this co-production with HOME Manchester, who we previously partnered with to present Endgame in 2016. We'll be welcoming a number of familiar faces to the creative team alongside Dominic: Designer Tom Piper (Hay Fever, Endgame) and Lighting Designer Ben Ormerod (Oresteia, King Lear, Hamlet).

This production plays at HOME Manchester 10 – 25 May. Long Day's Journey Into Night is supported by Friends of the Citizens Page 12 of 38

PASSING PLACES

BY STEPHEN GREENHORN A Dundee Rep Ensemble production Passing Places is the story of small-town boys Alex and Brian, a Lada, a surfboard and a crate of Irn Bru. Desperate to leave their mundane lives and dead-end jobs in Motherwell behind them, they head out to find excitement and pleasure.

This hilarious and intense road movie for the stage will take audiences on a wild ride through Scotland from Motherwell to the Highlands on a riotous journey of self-discovery brought vividly to life by the Dundee Rep Ensemble.

Passing Places is a high octane, fast-paced, contemporary Scottish comedy about the crazy, unpredictable escape of the urban doldrums.

This adrenaline-packed physical new production marks the 21st anniversary of this much-loved play by Stephen Greenhorn (Sunshine on Leith).

BY PETER ARNOTT A Citizens Theatre community production Exactly a hundred years ago in the Gorbals, as World War One draws towards its bloody close, audience and performers, soldiers and civilians, prepare for a big night out in the theatre to help them forget their troubles.

But those troubles come right into the auditorium with them: Russia is in revolution, Ireland is on the point of civil war, and this is the crossroads of a world in chaos on a night in the Royal Princess’s Theatre at 119 Gorbals Street that none of them will ever forget.

Performed by a company drawn from our local community and from across Glasgow, A Night to Remember will be the last production presented by the Citizens Theatre before we begin our building redevelopment project.

Citizens Theatre Season Brochure SPRING 2018 LARGE PRINT 549: SCOTS OF THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR

BY JACK NURSE AND ROBBIE GORDON A Wonder Fools production in association with Citizens Theatre and The Brunton Theatre.

1936. In villages, towns and cities across Scotland, 549 lives are gradually intertwining. People of contrasting backgrounds, ideologies and religions. Spurred on by their burning passion for equality and freedom, they will form the Scottish ranks of the Spanish Civil War’s legendary International Brigade.

Based on a true story, this new play follows four miners from the streets of East Lothian to the valleys of Spain. They gave up everything they knew: for a land they did not know; for a people they had never met; and for a cause they believed was right.

This new play with songs and storytelling is directed by Jack Nurse, who recently directed Lampedusa in our Circle Studio.

Citizens Theatre Season Brochure SPRING 2018 LARGE PRINT THE MATCH BOX

BY FRANK MCGUINNESS A Firebrand, Byre Theatre and Heart of Hawick coproduction The breathtaking new monologue by one of Ireland’s greatest dramatists, Frank McGuinness (Observe the Sons of Ulster Marching Towards the Somme) is given its Scottish premiere by Firebrand, performed by Janet Coulson.

The ties that bind us can never be broken, and the shocking events that bring Sal to exile on a remote Irish island are as unexpected as they are brutal. Her compelling journey through grief, revenge and the temptations of evil begs only one question: what would you do if pushed to the very edge?

Based in the Scottish Borders, Firebrand tour award-winning contemporary theatre productions from writers such as Rona Munro, David Greig, David Harrower and Lucy Prebble and are presenting their first production at the Citizens Theatre.

Directed by Firebrand’s Director of Productions Richard Baron, who also directs Bold Girls at the Citizens Theatre this season.

Citizens Theatre Season Brochure SPRING 2018 LARGE PRINT THREE SISTERS

BY ANTON CHEKHOV IN A NEW VERSION BY ADRIAN OSMOND A Lung Ha Theatre production "When Father was alive, this place was packed… there was heat, there was laughter and life."

Olga, Masha and Irina long for the glamour of Moscow; they long to be free of the life they have been ‘given’ in provincial Russia, to escape the countryside and return to the society to which they belong. But with the constant visits of soldiers and dignitaries, of family, friends and ‘acquaintances’, with work to be done, with marriages to be honoured will they ever be free of the family’s legacy and find fulfilment?

A play of life, love, loss, dreams, whimsy, hope - real and false - of moving and of remaining where you are.

Lung Ha Theatre Company is the leading theatre company for people with learning disabilities on Scotland, and with a growing reputation internationally. The Sibelius Academy trains artists, teachers and other music professionals who are skilled in independent and diverse artistic work.
