The Royal Court – Jerwood Theatre Downstairs
Tuesday, July 27th, 2010Three new plays have been announced in the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs at Royal Court, concluding with the first ever Christmas show at the Sloane Square venue – Get Santa! Theatre tickets for the season are on sale now.
First in the season of plays will be Clybourne Park by Bruce Norris. Dominic Cooke directs this new play, which will run in the Jerwood Theatre downstairs for one month from 2nd September. Clybourne Park follows two generations battling the attitudes of a local community whilst trying to buy property. The play is inspired by A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry.
Following Clybourne Park is Nina Raine’s Tribes, which sees the return of director Roger Mitchell to the venue after a break of 15 years. Tribe’s follows the struggle of a deaf young man trying to be heard in what promises to be a “fascinating dissection of belonging, family and the limitations of communication”
The Jerwood Theatre downstairs will round off the season with Get Santa! A “magical, musical and downright mischievous” play by Anthony Neilson and Nick Powell. Every year Holly makes a special wish to Santa – to see her real father, but instead all she gets is useless presents. It’s Christmas Eve and this year she is going to take matters into her own hands. Get Santa opens on 1st December and runs until 15th January.
