April Deangelis

Life With Oscar comes to the Arcola Theatre in April. In a frenetic on-stage exorcism, actor and filmmaker Nick Cohen relives his rollercoaster journey from South London to Sunset Boulevard. Performances run 2 – 20 April.

The new musical has been adapted by April DeAngelis, from a screenplay by Craig Ferguson and Mark Crowdy, with a score from pop-rock star KT Tunstall.

Yesterday a major symposium was held at The RSA at which leading British playwrights discussed how theatre should respond to and reflect the changing international role of Great Britain, Northern Ireland and Europe over the next decade. Scroll down for photos and footage from the event!
