The Rep – spring/summer 2010
The Rep have just announced their spring/summer season. They single out the following highlights:
- David Edgar’s staging of Arthur & George
- Alan Bennett’s latest – The Habit of Art
- Brian Friel’s Olivier Award-winning play Dancing At Lughnasa; and
- A major new production of Michael Frayn’s comic romp Noises Off
There’s also “a series of plays inspired by the issues facing young people today” and quite a lot of dance, including some shows forming part of British Dance Edition 2010.
Next year will see the start of a period of upheaval for the Rep, what with the work on the new library that’ll be taking place. As a spokesperson said to the Birmingham Post:
Links for 10 January 2010 Return of the mac Links for 25 January 2010 Links for 29 January 2010 Links for 12 January 2010The first work on The Rep building will start in early 2010 with the demolition of current workshops, rehearsal rooms and hospitality suites. These functions will move to another location.
We will continue to produce shows in the theatre during 2010 and we don’t imagine we will have to leave the building until 2011
