First performed at Dallas Theater Center in 2015, Samuel D. Hunter’s three-hander play Clarkston makes its British première in a production at Trafalgar Theatre, which is directed by Jack Serio. Set in the Washington state town of Clarkston, the lives of Connecticut native Jake and nearby Lewistonian Chris are intertwined as they find themselves working the nightshift together at Costco; both have secrets that they are trying to hide from - but does the answer lie in stacking shelves?
Clarkston, a new play by Samuel D. Hunter, arrives at the Trafalgar Theatre later this month. Directed by Jack Serio, the show, described as a “modern frontier story,” follows Jake [Joe Locke], who meets Chris [Ruaridh Mollica], in a Costco in Clarkston, Washington. Recently, we had the chance to speak with Sophie Melville, who will be playing Trisha. We discussed how she first got started in the world of theatre, what it’s like to perform new work versus classics like Shakespeare and how she gets into character for her roles.
New artwork has today been released for the UK premiere of Clarkston by critically acclaimed writer Samuel D. Hunter (Oscar-winning and BAFTA nominated film The Whale) as venue and dates are also confirmed.
