National Theatre at Home, the National Theatre's streaming platform, announces the release of two powerful new productions: Alterations, available from 12 August, and Retrograde, releasing 9 September.
Michael Abbensetts was the first Black writer to have a series commissioned by the BBC: the groundbreaking Empire Road, which had an almost entirely Black cast and crew. The Guyanese writer's work has been largely forgotten, so it seems appropriate that the National Theatre, with its important Black Plays Archive, has chosen to stage his play Alterations, not seen since 1978.
The National Theatre has released first look rehearsal photos for Bush Theatre Artistic Director Lynette Linton’s (Blues for an Alabama Sky, Shifters) revival of award-winning Guyana-born British writer Michael Abbensetts’ (Sweet Talk, Empire Road) era-defining comedy Alterations.
The National Theatre has announced full casting for Bush Theatre Artistic Director Lynette Linton's revival of award-winning Guyana-born British writer Michael Abbensetts' Alterations.
