2017 is the Tron Theatre's 35th anniversary year and several milestone events have been programmed to mark this significant birthday. Central to this programme of activity is our autumn production Brothers Karamazov. Dramatised from the Dostoyevsky novel of the same name by Richard Crane and directed by Faynia Williams, the award-winning production took the Edinburgh Festival by storm in 1981 and has subsequently been toured internationally to much acclaim.
Faynia Williams was the original Artistic Director of Tron Theatre Company and has a long and illustrious career in the theatre, television and film industries. She returns to the Tron as guest director not only to celebrate our auspicious anniversary, but also as her way of paying tribute to the late Alan Rickman, who played Ivan in her original Edinburgh production of the play. A cast of four, Thierry Mabonga, Tom England, Mark Brailsford and Sean Biggerstaff (who made his acting debut at the Tron in 1993 in Michael Boyd's acclaimed production of Macbeth), play the Brothers Karamazov and double as the other principal players and the piece will be designed by Carys Hobbs, with costume by Katherina Radeva, lighting design by Sergey Jakovsky, choreography by Darren Brownlie and musical direction by Matt Regan.12 - 28 OCTOBER, 7.45pm
