Performances run from Friday 3 February to Saturday 18 March.
All new rehearsal photos have been released from The Watermill's brand-new stage adaption of Bill Bryson's award-winning memoir NOTES FROM A SMALL ISLAND, affectionately celebrating the quirks and eccentricities of British life, adapted by BAFTA and Olivier Award winning playwright Tim Whitnall.
Directed by The Watermill's Artistic Director Paul Hart, designed by Katie Lias, and produced in association with Simon Friend Entertainment, Notes from a Small Island kicks off the Newbury-based award-winning theatre's spring season, and will star Olivier-nominated Mark Hadfield (Thérèse Raquin - Olivier, NT, Into the Woods - Regent's Park Open Air Theatre), as 'Bill Bryson'.
