⭐ BARN THEATRE ANNOUNCES 2020 THEATRE RECOVERY SEASON ⭐
The Barn Theatre has announced their full theatre recovery season for 2020 with two new productions being announced to join the current production of Private Peaceful, which is currently running until 4th October.
The season, which will feature smaller cast sizes as well as a reduced capacity in the auditorium, follows the postponement of the Barn’s original 2020 Built by Barn Season earlier this year. The theatre intends to reschedule the postponed productions to 2021 with new dates being announced in due course.
The Theatre Recovery Season will consist of a two-hand actor-musician production of Simon Reade’s adaptation of Private Peaceful (10th – 27th September), a new revival production of Stephen Sondheim’s Marry Me A Little (16th October – 8th November) and the world debut of Alan Pollock’s new stage adaptation of J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan (21st November – 3rd January 2020).
The Barn Theatre have also recently announced that they will be co-producing the world debut of Henry Filloux-Bennett’s new digital play adaptation of Jonathon Coe’s What a Carve Up!, with the Lawrence Batley Theatre in Huddersfield and the New Wolsey Theatre in Ipswich. Directed by Tamara Harvey, the digital production will run from 31 October – 29 November 2020.
Kirk Jameson will return to the Barn Theatre as a Director-in-Residence for the two newly announced productions. His previous directorial work with the Barn Theatre includes The World Goes ‘Round (co-produced by Piers Cottee-Jones) at the theatre’s first outdoor theatre festival BarnFest and the 2018 Built by Barn production of Stiles + Drewe’s Just So.
The theatre will run at a reduced capacity with safety procedures including a new seating plan, perspex screens and an upgraded ventilation system
