⭐ MATTHEW LÓPEZ’S REVERBERATION – EUROPEAN PREMIERE ANNOUNCED FOR BRISTOL OLD VIC – OCTOBER 2024 ⭐
Matthew López’s REVERBERATION will have its European premiere at Bristol Old Vic this autumn, it has been announced.
Tony and Olivier Award-winning writer of The Inheritance, Matthew López’s play about loneliness and longing, REVERBERATION, has today been announced as Bristol Old Vic’s flagship autumn production.
This sexy, funny, and hauntingly human play was originally staged at Hartford Stage CT in 2015. Now a brand-new production has been reshaped by López, transposing the action across the Atlantic to London, and will be the play’s European premiere.
After a personal tragedy, Jonathan has withdrawn from the world, with little social life beyond the men he meets online. When the enigmatic free spirit Claire moves into the flat upstairs, she tries to coax him out of his shell. Drawn together by a mutual need for emotional attachment, they form a connection, but the past eventually reverberates into the present, threatening the happiness they’ve found…
REVERBERATION will be directed by rising theatre director Jack Sain, who is making his Bristol Old Vic debut.
They will be joined by Tony nominee Ti Green (Touching the Void) who returns to Bristol Old Vic to design, alongside sound designer Nicola T Chang (For Black Boys…), lighting designer Robbie Butler (The Glass Menagerie), video designer Daniel Denton (Misty) and intimacy co-ordinator Robbie Taylor Hunt (Red, White & Royal Blue).
Matthew López wrote REVERBERATION three years prior to The Inheritance, which premiered at the Young Vic in 2018, before transferring to the West End later that year, and to Broadway in 2019. It received an incredible critical response, with The Daily Telegraph calling it “the most important American play of the century” and won multiple Olivier and Tony Awards.
RREVERBERATION will play the Bristol Old Vic, running from 2nd October – 2nd November 2024. Tickets go on general sale from 11th June 2024.
