Virtually live @curtaincall @finborough @pbp_podcast
Virtual readings and podcasts for those in need of a theatre fix... And finding that they have more time in the evenings...
A Separate Peace
On Saturday 2 May at 7pm, David Morrissey, Denise Gough, Jenna Coleman, Ed Stoppard and Maggie Service headline Tom Stoppard’s, A Separate Peace. This is the first in a series of live-streamed virtual readings called The Remote Read.
It will raise money for creatives, stage technicians and food charities. Tickets for the live reading are available from £10.
The One Day of the Year
Alan Seymour’s play ‘One Day of the Year’ was seen at the Finborough a few years back. It takes an unflinching and honest look at the day Australians, and New Zealanders commemorate their war dead. This live reading, presented by Kathy Lette, is directed by Wayne Harrison. The Australian and New Zealand cast, including Mark Little, Kerry Fox, Daniel Monks, Celeste Dodwell and Paul Haley.
Commissioned by the Australian High Commission as part of its Anzac Day commemorations, it’s available via the Youtube stream until 31 May.
