Genesian Theatre Announces Its 74th Season

The Genesian Theatre presents their 74th Season in 2018. The full listings are as follows:

• 7th Apr-12th: May Sherlock Holmes and the Speckled Band by Arthur Conan Doyle adapted by Max Gee
• 26th May-30th Jun: The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde
• 14th Jul-1st Sep: The Unexpected Guest by Agatha Christie

The season will start with a classic of detective fiction; Sherlock Holmes and the Speckled Band in a brand new adaptation from Conan Doyle's original by British playwright Max Gee. One for the true believers, this is, elementarily, the very best of Holmes.

The comes Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest. A perfect play for this theatre, this overdue revival will introduce a whole new audience to the joys of bunburying, handbags, and those hard to obtain cucumber sandwiches.

To conclude the Kent Street season we tip our hats to the Genesian favourite and best selling novelist ever Agatha Christie with her ingenious mystery The Unexpected Guest in the theatre's final production at Kent Street. This production is certain to sell out - book now!

2018 marks a watershed for the Genesians as they move to new premises after 63 years at Kent Street. This will not be the first move for this Company; they were nomadic for the first ten years of their existence. 2018 will mark the beginning of a new and exciting chapter in their long history.
