Sea Wall - - West End History , Info & More

Old Vic Theatre
The Cut, South Bank London

In celebration of our 200th Birthday, the acclaimed Paines Plough production of Sea Wall, by Simon Stephens (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, National Theatre/West End), directed by George Perrin and performed by the multi-award winning Andrew Scott, will play at The Old Vic for just 2 weeks from Mon 18 Jun.

Things for Alex are good. He loves his wife, his daughter, his city, his job. But sometimes the force of life can crash against you. Sometimes everything you thought you could always depend on can be taken away. Sea Wall was written by Simon Stephens as a stage play for Andrew Scott and now comes to The Old Vic in a strictly limited run, with tickets from just £10. Don’t miss the opportunity to see this quietly devastating monologue.

Songwriter James Steinle To Release 'Live At Hole In The Wall'
by Kaitlin Milligan - Jun 27, 2019


 Songwriter James Steinle's music is often filled with characters who live near borders and on open plains, who work cattle on hot days and visit honky tonks at night, who experience hardships and cause of a bit of a ruckus from time to time. His songs are filled with perspective -- sometimes his own, sometimes that of others -- that shine a light on what life looks like for people in a place that's often forgotten.
