Cast Set for New Caryl Churchill Play ESCAPED AONE at Royal Court Theatre
The full cast has been announced for the Royal Court Theatre's production of Caryl Churchill's new play Escaped Alone. Award-winning actresses Linda Bassett, Deborah Findlay, Kika Markham and June Watson have been cast in the four-hander about old friends and catastrophe.
James Macdonald directs. Escaped Alone runs from Thursday 21 January 2016 - Saturday 12 March 2016 in the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs and opens the Royal Court Theatre's 60th year.
"I'm walking down the street and there's a door in the fence open and inside there are three women I've seen before."
Three old friends and a neighbour. A summer of afternoons in the back yard. Tea and catastrophe.
"Stories of those above ground were told and retold till there were myths of the husband who cooked feasts, the wife who swam the ocean, the gay lover who could fly, the child who read minds, the talking dog."
Design by Miriam Buether, Lighting by Peter Mumford and Sound by Christopher Shutt.
