A Stephen Joseph Theatre Company, Scarborough,
Octagon Theatre Bolton and Hull Truck Theatre production

By Arthur Miller
Directed by David Thacker
Designed by Patrick Connellan

5 – 30 April
In the attic of a soon to be demolished house in
1968 New York, two brothers meet for the first
time in sixteen years to sell off the possessions
left by their deceased father. Victor had wanted
to be a scientist, but settled for life as a cop on
the New York streets, while Walter left home
to become an eminent surgeon. Reunited,
they set about dealing with the pain and
misunderstanding that lies at the heart of their
relationship, and the sacrifices they have both
made.

As they confront their history, eighty-nine year

old furniture dealer, Soloman haggles over the
remnants of their lives, ready to offer a fair deal.
After all, everything has a price.

Written by Arthur Miller, author of The Crucible,

A View From The Bridge and Death Of A
Salesman, The Price is a compassionate family
drama that is funny, surprising and heart-
rending. It is directed by David Thacker who
had a close working relationship with the writer.

The Stephen Joseph Theatre Company in

By Pam Gems
Directed by Chris Monks

26 May – 18 June &

24 August – 3 September
Paris, the 1970s. Legendary screen and stage actress,
Marlene Dietrich, now in her seventies, is preparing for her
evening’s solo performance...

In the twilight years of her career and acutely aware of her

celebrity status, Marlene is as fierce as ever. But backstage,
as she gossips, gives press interviews and appears the
demanding diva, we glimpse the nerves, the pressure and
the need for applause.

Singer, actress, Hollywood star, glamorous beauty, wartime

idol and cabaret performer, Marlene was a showbiz
legend. Interspersed with much-loved songs of a bygone
era, including You Do Something To Me, Le Vie En Rose,
Lili Marlene and Falling In Love Again, this is a moving
celebration of the woman behind the myth.

A new version of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya
Presented by arrangement with David Pugh
& Daffydd Roger

7 July – 30 September
“I’m the only living thing without a life. Isn’t that
terrible? With a past that was entirely wasted
and a present bordering on the ridiculous.”
Marcus loves Eleanor although she’s already
married and can never be his. His schoolgirl
niece Sonya is secretly in love with David, the
family doctor and confirmed bachelor, which in
her heart of hearts she knows is probably all in
vain. And to make things still more hopeless,
as days go by, Eleanor and David appear to
be developing an attraction which is surely
unthinkable. As summer comedy grows into
autumnal farce, things inevitably lead to winter
regrets both for what has occurred and what
might have been.
Set in the Lake District in 1935, Alan
Ayckbourn’s reworking of Uncle Vanya
brings an affectionate English slant to Anton
Chekhov’s classic love story.

By Georges Bizet
Adapted and directed by Chris Monks

28 July – 3 September
“Extra points on your reward card,
and a burst of Bizet to boot”
The Guardian

In a run-down shopping mall, shop-lifting,

fights and checking out the talent are all ways
for the workers to fend off boredom. And drop-
dead-gorgeous, feisty Carmen is right in the
centre and not afraid to shake things up.

Drawn to the glamorous football superstar

Tony Amor, aka ‘The Italian Stallion’, but tied
to temperamental ex-soldier Johnny, Carmen
finds out what it means to live and love beyond
the law.

Following the huge success of The Mikado

(2010) and The Pirates of Penzance (2009),
Bizet’s celebrated opera is adapted by Chris
Monks, who retells a modern story around the
famous score, in a tale of jealousy and passion.

Written and directed by Alan Ayckbourn

8 September – 15 October
“I have a friend in the force and he tells me
that, day to day, the police are hanging on by
a whisker… by that much… It’s not just here,
mark you. It’s nationwide. One breath of wind -
anarchy!’’

Things are not right on The Bluebell Hill

Development. Theft, petty crime, vandalism, all
the ills of modern suburban existence are on
the increase.

Newcomers Martin and his sister Hilda are the

crime wave’s latest victims - on the very day of
their housewarming party, no less - and resolve
to take action. After all, the law of the land, all
that’s right and proper and even God Himself
are surely on their side. But what starts out as a
well intentioned neighbourhood watch scheme
soon develops into something altogether more
sinister. In these matters, it seems the frying
pan is closer to the fire than anyone realises.

Alan Ayckbourn’s cautionary tale of the

dangers of taking the law into your own hands
is his seventy fifth play. It is also the three
hundredth new play to be commissioned by
the SJT.

The Interminable
Suicide Of Gregory
Church
Written and performed by

Fringe First Winner - 2009
Gregory had fifty seven letters to write.
He’d never written that many letters,
not in one go. In fact, he’d never
written a single letter and it was taking
significantly longer than he’d anticipated.
He’d started, full of optimism, curiously
enough, at 9am and now here he was 8
hours later half way through letter twenty
four. He glanced at his watch and then at
the noose hanging over his head.
Gregory sighed.
Had he known how long suicide letters

“Proof denies faith, and without

Pope Urban (1624)
1610: Galileo looks up to the Heavens, and
through his telescope finds incontrovertible
proof that the planets revolve around the
sun, in direct opposition to the teaching of
the Church that the Earth is the centre of
the Universe.
1634: Galileo is ordered to stand trial
before the Grand Inquisitor on charges of
heresy.
Galileo’s tragedy was that he never
understood that his differences with the
church were not about reason, logic, and
scientific fact. They were about politics.

Dan Leno –
The King’s Jester
Written and performed by Tony Lidington
Directed by Dominic Goodwin
13 June
The first stand-up comic, beloved
pantomime dame, world champion clog
dancer and character actor, Dan Leno
was the greatest Music Hall star of all time
and comic genius of his age. He laid the
foundations for British comedy, blazing a
trail before Ronnie Barker’s monologues,
Les Dawson’s wordplays, David Walliams’
cross-dressing, Michael Flattley’s feet of
flame or even Chaplin’s struggling little
tramp.
With live musical accompaniment, this
romp through entertainment history brings
the nineteenth century showman to life.
“admirably played with enormous and
infectious delight. Here is a show to
be admired, respected, enjoyed and
cheered.”

Guitarist & composer
With guitar & tabla accompaniment

A flamenco-jazz guitar virtuoso, Eduardo
Niebla is a master of today’s generation;
technically superb, poignantly poetic,
formidably talented. Inspired by tours
to India, the Middle East, his adopted
Yorkshire homeland and his mother,
Eduardo presents his stunning new album
“My Gypsy Waltz” together with music from
his acclaimed 30 year career – passionate
flamenco infused with a myriad of Eastern
colours and a Gypsy-jazz edge.

spellbinding mixture of flamenco and
modern jazz, bursting with obvious

Set during, and in the aftermath, of the First
World War, this poignant drama follows
the lives of three members of the Duke of
Cornwall’s Light Infantry, on an incredible
journey from the mines of Cornwall to the
fields of Flanders, and back home again.
Along the way we watch characters fall in
and out of love, meet with mazed beauties,
and befriend the very first surfers in the
unlikeliest of surroundings.
Though set in the early twentieth century,
this darkly mischievous play makes
comment on current conflicts around the
world, and what it is like to be away from
where you d’belong t’be.

Hanging Hooke
Written by Siobhán Nicholas
Performed by Chris Barnes
29 June
Christopher Wren loved him. Isaac
Newton loathed him.
Robert Hooke was a polymath genius: a
fine artist, brilliant scientist, extraordinary
engineer and accomplished architect. Yet
Hooke was written out of history; after
his death, even his portrait mysteriously
disappeared.
Was “England’s Leonardo” buried by
another Da Vinci plot? In hot blooded times
passions explode. This tale of intrigue and
betrayal, explores the captivating C17th
world of new science and discovery.

The Royal Society.

that leaves audiences - both
male and female - spellbound
and dying for more!

Surrounded by old suitcases,

than just a really great swing band, they are
an institution. They have been on the road
for two decades playing every European
country as well as the USA and Russia and
recording ten CDs.

Rosemary delves through two
hundred and fifty years of

BARTOK Quartet No.3 in C sharp
SMETANA Quartet No.1 in E minor From My Life
BBC Music Magazine Newcomer of the
Year 2010 and BBC New Generation
Artists, the Elias Quartet’s reputation
precedes them.
Beethoven’s Op.74 quartet is heroic in
sound, mirroring the style of his fifth
symphony. Like most of Bartók’s music this
short third quartet owes a great deal to folk
melodies and is one of his most focused
and structured pieces.
Smetana was one of the first to write an
autobiographical work. He wrote to a good
friend saying “My intention was to paint a
tone picture of my life”.

Marky and the
Mad Dogs Magical
Mystery Tour
Written and Directed by Cheryl Govan
23 July - 27 August
Saturdays, 9.30am & 10.30am
Marky and the Mad Dogs are a Rock ‘n’
Roll band and they dream of being famous.
Unfortunately they can’t play, they can’t
sing, they can’t dance and they look awful!
When they stop at a petrol station to fill up
Vernon (the tour bus) they meet a rather
odd pump attendant who fills up the bus
with a potion that transports them into a
magical world.
Come along and watch this fun and crazy
adventure where Marky, the Mad Dogs
and Vernon meet some rather unusual
characters who help them along the way to
stardom.
You can help too, just join in, sing along
and maybe even see the next big thing.

The Things She Sees Scarborough Borough

10 June, 7pm
11 June, 2pm & 7pm
Written by Ben Power
Adapted from the novel by Charles Boyle
Directed by Cheryl Govan
A thirteen year old girl, Dizzy, sits in near
darkness. She has a large sketchbook
on her lap and is drawing. Her attention
is fierce, a reverie. From the darkness
beyond, shapes begin to emerge: a boy on
a bike holding a bunch of flowers, a chubby
man in an armchair, then horses, with
Moorish riders, rearing up in the shadows...
Are Dizzy’s prophetic visions a gift or a
burden? A teen thriller and visual feast
not to be missed.
