Book Now For RED and THE LIEUTENANT OF INISHMORE
By: Marianka Swain Nov. 28, 2017
The Michael Grandage Company has two exciting new productions in 2018 - Red by John Logan, and The Lieutenant of Inishmore by Martin McDonagh, both directed by Michael Grandage, at Wyndham's Theatre in London's West End. Book tickets here from £13!
Award-winning stage and screen actor Alfred Molina reprises his critically acclaimed performance as the American abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko. He is joined by rising star Alfred Enoch of US television drama series How to Get Away With Murder as his assistant Ken. Red runs 4 May-28 July, 2018.
Under the watchful gaze of his young assistant, and the threatening presence of a new generation of artists, Mark Rothko takes on his greatest challenge yet: to create a definitive work for an extraordinary setting.
This is the first ever UK revival since Grandage directed the world premiere at The Donmar Warehouse in 2009. The production went on to win six Tony Awards including Best Play. Red reunites John Logan and Michael Grandage following Peter and Alice with Judi Dench and Ben Whishaw, which formed part of MGC's inaugural season in the West End in 2013, and their feature film Genius.
Aidan Turner, best known for playing the title role in the BBC hit series Poldark, returns to the West End to play Padraic in a rare revival of Martin McDonagh's critically acclaimed, brilliant satire on terrorism, The Lieutenant of Inishmore. It runs 23 June-8 September, 2018.
Who knocked Mad Padraic's cat over on a lonely road on the island of Inishmore and was it an accident? He'll want to know when he gets back from a stint of torture and chip-shop bombing in Northern Ireland: he loves that cat more than life itself.
This production follows Michael Grandage's award-winning production of McDonagh's The Cripple of Inishmaan in 2013.
