How are you going to spend your June?
First images from rehearsals for our forthcoming production and opportunities for you to get creative this summer!
Move Over, Michelle Pfeiffer and Al Pacino!
In just over two weeks, our brand new production will premiere at RESET in the centre of Brussels.
Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune stars Debra Baker and Alan Turkington in the title roles: Frankie, a hardened diner waitress with a past she's reluctant to reveal; and Jonny, a dreamer with an unyielding belief in love. These two wonderfully versatile actors have just started rehearsals in Brussels with Robert Chevara as the director for this production. Robert is no stranger to Brussels, having worked here in 2021 for our production of Vincent River by Philip Ridley.
You can follow our socials to find out more about our cast and the journey they will go on as they get to grips with the drama of this comedy.
Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune was so successful when it was first performed in New York in 1987 that it was adapted into a movie in 1991, starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Al Pacino. While the stage version and the film adaptation do vary, the style of the original play remained due to the fact that both were written by Terrence McNally.
Book your tickets now for Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune and come and find out why we have decided to retell this timeless and charming piece and why it is relevant to our connected-yet-isolated world.
