Season 55

NOVEMBER 23 & 24, 2019


James Corden delights in this classic Italian comedy, where sex, food and money are high on the agenda.

  

Based on Carlo Goldoni”s 18th-century Italian commedia dell'arte piece, The Servant of Two Masters, it’s pretty funny in its original form.  But Richard Bean has transformed it into a delirious English carry-on set in Brighton in 1963, creating scenes and dialogue that often leave the audience helpless with hilarity.

FEBRUARY 1 & 2, 2020


Broadcast live from The Old Vic in London, Academy Award-winner Sally Field (Steel Magnolias, Brothers & Sisters) and Bill Pullman (The Sinner, Independence Day) star in Arthur Miller’s blistering drama.  In All My Sons, Miller examines loss, honour and betrayal in one middle-class Ohio family in the aftermath of WW II.


“Bill Pullman and Sally Field grab the audience by the jugular in this brilliant Arthur Miller revival.” (The Telegraph)

Lakeside Little Theatre, in affiliation with National Theatre Live, presents the HD Recording of the live production SMALL ISLAND. 


POSTPONED TO EARLY SEASON 56


Adapted for the stage by Helen Edmundson; Based on Andrea Levy’s Orange Prize-winning novel.


Directed by Rufus Norris, Andrea Levy’s epic novel bursts to new life on the Olivier stage. Small Island embarks on a journey from Jamaica to Britain, through the Second World War to 1948 – the year the HMS Empire Windrush docked at Tilbury. 


"The show has dazzling attention to detail, seamless transitions between the West Indies and England, a mix of naturalism and playfulness and fine ensemble playing from a 40-strong cast. But it stands out most of all because of what it has in abundance – that rarest of qualities in an epic – charm.” (The Observer)
