Following the success of their Platform Peterborough season, Eastern Angles are delighted to be back in the city with their spring production, The Long Way Home.
During November & December 2009 Eastern Angles Theatre Company’s Peterborough-inspired double-bill, Lion & Unicorn and Lincoln Road, played to over 2000 people in more than 20 different locations across Peterborough including Arthur Mellows College and Fulbridge Primary School. Theo Devaney, who played the part of Gianni in the play Lincoln Road will join Jumaan Short, Susan McGoun and James Bolt in this brand new spring production - The Long Way Home.
Written by talented playwright Charles Way, The Long Way Home tells the story of an old woman who decides to walk home to the seaside village of her birth - a journey through dark woods, fertile plains and over snow-capped mountains. On the way she meets a wild dog-boy, played by Theo Devaney, and the two become unlikely travelling companions.
The Long Way Home will be performed by a cast of professional actors and directed by Naomi Jones who directed Eastern Angles’ successful Peterborough-based play, Lincoln Road.
Discounted tickets (£5 a head) are available for members of the local community at performances at Arthur Mellows Village College on Tuesday 9th March and Fulbridge Primary School on Wednesday 10th March. Ring 01473 211498 for more details.
This production will tour to over 50 different venues across the East of England between February 17th - May 22nd 2010.
