Casting announced for David Storey’s Home at Chichester Festival Theatre
Casting has been announced for David Storey’s Home at Chichester Festival Theatre.
The new revival of the award-winning 1970 play will run at the Minerva Theatre between 8 October and 6 November, directed by Josh Roche.
Leon Annor plays Alfred; Hayley Carmichael plays Kathleen; Daniel Cerqueira plays Harry; Doña Croll plays Marjorie and John Mackay plays Jack.
Harry and Jack. Marjorie and Kathleen. Alfred.
In a neglected garden, small talk oscillates between the weather, the neighbours, reminiscences of friends and family, and anecdotes of past exploits in love and war.
But this quintet of characters, with their foibles and failings, are not what they seem to be, and nor is their home. And overhead, the clouds are gathering.
HOME has become a modern classic – a heartrendingly funny, haunting and deeply humane study of hearts, minds and England: islands adrift.
The production designer will be Sophie Thomas, with lighting designed by Alex Musgrave, sound designed by Sam Glossop and casting by Charlotte Sutton.
Tickets priced from £20 are available online from cft.org.uk
