Ranging from Glasgow to Algiers, from Belfast to New York City, Finborough Theatre's Spring Season 2013 is an eclectic mix of the three strands of our artistic policy with new writing including premieres from both established writers (Caryl Churchill and Stewart Conn) and new playwrights (Bekah Brunstetter and David Hutchison); a rediscovery (the groundbreaking Ulster classic Over The Bridge, unseen in Great Britain for over fifty years); and musical theatre with the European premiere of a new musical, the Off-Broadway hit, ROOMS - A Rock Romance.

The season opens with the English premiere of Stewart Conn's I Didn't Always Live Here, playing from 26 March - 20 April 2013. On Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays, 31 March, 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 14, 15 and 16 April 2013 is the long-overdue world premiere of Caryl Churchill's The Hospital At The Time Of The Revolution.

May sees the European premiere of a new musical, ROOMS - A Rock Romance with music and lyrics by multi-award-winning composer/lyricist Paul Scott Goodman, directed by award-winning director Andrew Keates, playing 23 April - 18 May 2013. It is accompanied on Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays, 28, 29, 30 April, 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 14 May 2013, by the classic 1960 Ulster sectarian drama Over The Bridge by Sam Thompson.

The season comes to a close with the professional world premiere by the Finborough Theatre's Playwright-in-Residence and one of the USA's hottest young writers, Bekah Brunstetter's Nothing Is The End Of The World (Except For The End Of The World), playing 21 May - 8 June 2013. It is accompanied by the world premiere of The Blood Is Strong by David Hutchison, a new writer in his 60's (as we firmly believe 'new' playwright shouldn't just mean 'young' playwright) which plays on Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays, 26, 27, 28 May, 2, 3 and 4 June 2013.

Finborough Theatre is located at 118 Finborough Road, London SW10 9ED. Book Online at www.finboroughtheatre.co.uk, or the 24 Hour Box Office at 0844 847 1652.
