Richmond Theatre’s Community Curators look back on 110 glorious years of Richmond Theatre

Supported by the Richmond Theatre Trust,

our anniversary celebrations continue with

projects that mark the Theatre’s heritage.

Pictured are the newly recruited volunteer

curators for our Heritage Lottery Funded

project: Richmond Theatre 110. They have

met with the Richmond Theatre archivists

Norman Fenner, Colin Draper and Richard

Broadhurst to learn more about the history

of Richmond Theatre and to take their

first steps in curating the Richmond

Theatre 110 exhibition. Both the exhibition

and a specially devised play, written by

local young people, will be unveiled in late

summer 2010. There are still opportunities

to get involved by sharing your memories

of Richmond Theatre with us. Either

THE AWARD-WINNING HIT COMEDYBY RICHARD HARRIS

In a dusty church hall, ex-professional dancer Mavis Turner

holds her weekly tap class. Every Thursday, in stumbles her

well-intentioned but not overly talented troupe - the awkward

but hugely enthusiastic Lynne, snooty Vera, streetwise Maxine

and the rest of the group - all brought together to dance as

if no one is watching, and hopefully no-one ever will!

That’s until they're invited to perform at a charity gala.

As disbelief is replaced by sheer terror, can this bunch

of amateurs pull together and put on the performance

of a lifetime?

Starring Brian Capron, known to millions for his award-winning

portrayal of the sinister Richard Hillman in Coronation Street

and Anita Harris, one of the brightest singing sensations of

the ’60s who famously set pulses racing as Nurse Clarke in

Carry On Doctor, this hilariously funny and heart-warming

play proves that in dancing as in life, it’s always better

to follow your own tune.

KILLER THRILLER FROM THE UNDISPUTED QUEEN OF CRIME

By Theatre Workshop, Charles Chilton,

Gerry Raffles and Members of the Original Cast.

the way we think about war forever.

A motley collection who sing, play instruments, dance

It’s A Long Way To Tipperary.

Co-directed by Erica Whyman (Our Friends in the North,

A Doll’s House, Look Back in Anger), and Sam Kenyon

(Sweeney Todd, Merrily We Roll Along, Sunset Boulevard),

OSCAR WILDE’S HIGHLYCHARGED MASTERPIECE

8

By Oscar WildeDirected by Jamie Lloyd

How pale the Princess is! She is like the shadow of a white

rose in a mirror of silver...

The brutal power of ancient myth collides with twentieth

century decadence in Oscar Wilde’s dazzling verse tragedy.

Salome, stepdaughter of King Herod, agrees to perform the

mysterious dance of the seven veils but demands in return the

head of the King’s most infamous prisoner – John the Baptist.

Wilde’s Salome is a lyrical yet shocking piece of storytelling

from one of the greatest writers of the last two centuries.

It is fragile, savage and shimmeringly beautiful, rendered

in exquisite poetry and unforgettable theatrical images.

Headlong and Curve Theatre, Leicester, present a vivid

contemporary production of this rarely-seen masterpiece.

Jamie Lloyd is one of the most acclaimed young directors in

British theatre. Recent work includes Polar Bears (Donmar),

Piaf (Donmar and West End), Three Days of Rain (West End)

and the award-winning The Pride (Royal Court).

Headlong is one of the country’s most innovative theatre

companies. Under the artistic directorship of Rupert Goold,

recent work includes the critically acclaimed productions

of Six Characters in Search of an Author (West End)

and ENRON (West End/Broadway).

‘HeadlongTheatre is thecountry’s mostexciting touringcompany’Daily Telegraph

Dave Thursby was a hugely successful television comedian,

a national treasure, a devoted husband, a model client for his

agent and a staunch friend to his faithful gag writer, Harvey.

But when Dave unexpectedly pops his clogs, these close

companions are left bereft and some of them may even be out

of a job. Unless, of course, the repeats, television specials,

biographies and newspaper tell-alls can fill the vacuum.

But who is best placed to exploit the legacy?

Tom Conti plays Harvey alongside a fantastic cast of

performers including Diane Fletcher and Royce Mills

in this hilarious and fast paced comedy from the author

of such classic TV series as Rising Damp, Duty Free, Only

When I Laugh and Home to Roost. Eric Chappell’s script,

crammed with great jokes, reflects a lifetime of working with

comedians and he understands the ego of comic genius

better than most - exposed hilariously in Wife After Death.

A new comedy

By Alan AyckbournStar cast includes Liza Goddard and Jack Ellis

Directed by Joe Harmston

Bill Kenwright follows up his Ayckbourn hits Absurd Person

Singular, Woman In Mind and Bedroom Farce with a funny

and touching new take on role reversal.

Mal rules the roost, cheating on his unhappy wife and bullying

the son who has failed to live up to his expectations. It seems

nothing in this loveless marriage will change, until one night

Jill makes a despairing prayer – and wakes up to find that she

and Mal have switched bodies. Hilarity ensues as the pair try

to keep up appearances and fool the family in this gentle

comedy which shows how a change of perspective can

bring about a change of heart.

Liza Goddard, celebrated stage and television actress

whose credits include Doctor Who and Midsomer Murders

as well as numerous leading stage roles, plays Jill.

Jack Ellis, whose credits range from Coronation Street

and Bad Girls to the RSC, plays Mal.

Ronald Harwood, Oscar and Academy award-winning

playwright (The Dresser) and screen writer (The Pianist),

is the author of this uplifting story of self-discovery

and life-long friendships.

Retired opera singers Cissy, Reggie and Wilfred are

excited about performing a concert until their tranquil

world is unexpectedly interrupted by the arrival of

legendary diva Jean Horton. As old rivalries resurface

and past secrets are revealed, can the four

put aside their differences?

Ronald Harwood’s masterful story-telling combines

with sparkling wit to create a bittersweet comedy

that is at times both poignant and hilariously funny.

A star-studded cast includes the critically acclaimed

Timothy West (The Winslow Boy, The Old Country),

Susannah York (Gold, Superman, A Man For All Seasons),

Edward Hardwicke (best remembered for his portrayal

of Dr. Watson opposite Jeremy Brett’s Holmes in the

hit TV series) and Gwen Taylor (Prick Up Your Ears

THE MAN FROM STRATFORD

Written by Jonathan Bate

Shakespeare is the greatest writer the world has ever known.

But we know nothing about him. Or do we? In a magical

tour-de-force, Simon Callow, one of Britain’s greatest

actors, tracks down the real William Shakespeare,

bringing to life both the man and the unforgettable

characters – lovers, kings, soldiers and clowns –

who have since conquered the world’s stages.

Following the world-wide success of The Mystery of Charles

Dickens (West End/Broadway) and hot on the heels of

his sell-out hit Dr Marigold & Mr Chops, Callow joins

forces with Jonathan Bate, pre-eminent Shakespeare

biographer and editor of the Royal Shakespeare Company’s

Shakespeare: The Complete Works, to fill the stage

with Shakespeare’s real and imagined worlds.

Martin Shaw and Jenny Seagrove are reunited in the roles

he will be joined by his co-star from that hugely popular series,

Jenny Seagrove. Seagrove is fresh from critical acclaim in this

The Campest Cult Classic of

all time, The Rocky Horror

Picture Show gets the

Sing-a-Long-a treatment

it’s been screaming for!

Featuring the film, starring

Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon,

Meatloaf and Richard O’Brien,

it’s the most outrageous,

riotous, kitsch, wonderful

romp ever.

If you’ve done The Time Warp

before, you’ll never have

done it quite like this!

Fancy dress is not obligatory

but highly recommended!

RICHMOND THEATRE 110 PROJECT

This year we are inviting

local people to take part in our

110th anniversary celebrations.

We’ve recruited a team of

volunteer curators who are

mounting an exhibition about

the history of the Theatre at

the Museum of Richmond that

will open in September 2010.

A programme of creative

workshops for schools and

families will accompany

the exhibition.

We’re also working with a

group of local young people

who are writing a new play

inspired by people’s memories

of Richmond Theatre. There will

be a performed reading of this

exciting new work at 7.30pm

on Thursday 5 August. Book

your free tickets via Box Office.

If you want to know more

about it or share your

memories, we’d love to hear

from you. Talk to one of our

reminiscence volunteers who

will be in the Theatre bars

before selected shows, or

contact: eleanorpackham@
