Cast Announced For The Premiere Of UNDER THREE MOONS At The Lowry Salford
Box of Tricks have announced full casting for the premiere of Daniel Kanaber's (Shiver, Watford Palace Theatre) new play Under Three Moons which will start its Autumn tour at The Lowry, Salford in late September.
The production's two-hander will feature Darren Kuppan (Around The World In 80 Days, Hamlet, A Christmas Carol, Road, Europe (all as part of the Leeds Playhouse Ensemble), Guards At The Taj (Bush Theatre), Cymbeline & The Tempest (Shakespeare's Globe Theatre), East Is East (Trafalgar Studios & UK Tour) and An August Bank Holiday Lark (Northern Broadsides) as Paul and Kyle Rowe (Eastenders, Coronation Street and Peaky Blinders) as Michael.
Spanning half a lifetime, Under Three Moons takes place on three nights across three decades of two friends' lives. From a school trip to France as teenagers, to a surf shack in their twenties, to Christmas in their thirties, Mike and Paul meet up and talk into the night. From boyhood to manhood to fatherhood, these are the nights they share.
The new play tells the story of the two men growing together, a relationship that's close but often unarticulated. It also explores how that lack of direct expression can become the defining trait in a life and the shifting view of male identity in today's society from talk of 'lad culture' to the 'metro-sexual' and now 'toxic masculinity'.
The production is directed by Box of Tricks' Joint Artistic Director and co-founder Adam Quayle (Plastic Figurines, Box of Tricks) and is designed by award-winning designer Katie Scott (Narvik, Box of Tricks and Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse Studio Design Prize).
Under Three Moons will open at The Lowry, Salford from the 24-28 September and then tours until the 2 November to Huddersfield, Liverpool, Crewe, Hull, Leeds, Ormskirk, York, Newcastle, Mold and Whitehaven.
