Photo Flash: In Rehearsal with the Cast of CLARION at Arcola Theatre

Rehearsal photos have been released today from the world premiere of the explosive Fleet Street black comedy CLARION.

Two of the most highly acclaimed British actors of their generation, Clare Higgins and Greg Hicks, are to star in the World Premiere of Clarion, set in the office of Britain's worst newspaper, the Daily Clarion.

Written by Mark Jagasia, who worked as a journalist for several Fleet Street newspapers, Clarion is an urgent black comedy about free speech, nationalism and the state of the British media in 2015.

It will get a 5-week season at Arcola Theatre from Wednesday 15 April to Saturday 16 May in an explosive production from Artistic Director Mehmet Ergen.
