Nancy Sullivan

For the third summer in a row The Ruined Theatre, founded by local West End (Les Mis') and television (Changing Ends - Alan Carr) actress Nancy Sullivan, is transforming Lesnes Abbey ruins in Abbey Wood into an open air theatre. This year the company presents Peter Pan and The Battle for Neverland, the untold story of the boy who never grew up, a brand new production by writer Kieran Lynn, opening at Lesnes Abbey this August.

Declan Bennett presents BOY OUT THE CITY as part of Edinburgh Fringe, 3 – 27 August at Underbelly, Big Belly. Written by Declan Bennett and directed by Nancy Sullivan. 

This summer The Ruined Theatre, the team behind the 2021 successes Our Teacher’s a Troll and WITCHES, are bringing a classic tale to life with a modern twist.  Ally in Wonderland is a new adaptation by writer Frank Saunders of Lewis Carroll’s famous tale, opening at Lesnes Abbey this August. 

Two terrible twins, Sean and Holly, with a talent for turmoil rule their school with terror and tyranny. That is, until the arrival of a new headteacher with scaly skin, gnarly fangs and a spiky tail… Can the twins save the school from the child-eating troll? Can naughtiness prevail?

A confrontational vision of the future, RISE is a dystopian reaction to a modern problem - examining the division of wealth through a gritty, darkly humorous lens.

Nancy Sullivan has been in shows such as Les Miserables and The Country Wife. She's now starring in Fabric, a one-woman play written by Abi Zakarian, which opens tomorrow at Soho Theatre.

Damsel Productions today announces the London tour dates for Abi Zakarian's Fabric, a new production in support of Solace Women's Aid. Following a run at Soho Theatre, the production tours to non-traditional theatre spaces - Hammersmith Town Hall, Kingsgate Community Centre, Goodinge Community Centre and Draper Hall, located in four boroughs identified by Solace Women's Aid as target areas. Directed by Hannah Hauer-King and starring Nancy Sullivan as Leah, Fabric opens at Soho Theatre on 13 September, with previews from 11 September, and closes on 22 September before touring from 24 September to 6 October.

Director Luke Fredericks gives a new spin to William Wycherley's salacious comedy The Country Wife, taking it from its original Restoration setting to the crackling Roaring 20s. Sprinkled with anachronistic nudges, shirtless scenes, and a luxurious set and costume design by Stewart Charlesworth, the show has plenty of different kinds of eye-candy.

Working on William Wycherley's The Country Wife for its forthcoming production at Southwark Playhouse has revealed much about attitudes to sex, to gender equality, to social behaviour and to class. This is from a text written in 1675, but with themes that fill our broadsheets and tabloids. The recent #MeToo campaign and the blatant misogyny and gender imbalance with regards equality are, quite rightly, at the forefront of the news.

Co-Artistic Directors of Morphic Graffiti, Luke Fredericks and Stewart Charlesworth, today announce full casting for their new adaptation of William Wycherley's restoration comedy The Country Wife. Fredericks directs theatre veteran Richard Clews whose credits include King Lear, (Chichester Festival Theatre) and extensive work for the RSC and Shakespeare's Globe, Sarah Lam (Chimerica, Almeida Theatre / Harold Pinter Theatre, Lucky Man, No Problem!) and Sam Graham (Spooks, Kingdom, Footballer's Wives) who join the previously announced 'Bright Young Things' - EastEnders' Eddie Eyre, Call the Midwife's Leo Staar, West End stars Siubhan Harrison and Nancy Sullivan along with Daniel Cane, Mabel Clements and Joshua Hill completing the full company. Thrust into the excesses and seductions of late 1920s London: a city exploding with a heavy mix of jazz, gin and scandalous affairs, the production opens at Southwark Playhouse on 4 April, with previews from 28 March, and runs until 21 April.
