Casting is today announced for the UK premiere of Will Eno’s award-winning play The Open House, directed by former Artistic Director of the RSC, Michael Boyd. The production will run at the Ustinov Studio from Thursday 23 November to Saturday 23 December, with opening night for press on Wednesday 29 November.
It will then transfer to London from 18 January – 17 February 2018, playing at Notting Hill’s Print Room at the Coronet.
In Eno’s signature, inimitable style, The Open House offers a wildly subversive and dark,ly hilarious take on the archetypal family drama. The production stars Teresa Banham as Mother, Greg Hicks as Father, Lindsey Campbell as Daughter, Crispin Letts as Uncle and Ralph Davis as Son.
Son and Daughter have come home to celebrate their Mother and Father’s wedding anniversary, but the atmosphere is strained and the dog is nowhere to be seen. Just as they hit stalemate things start to take a very unexpected turn…
This production follows the hugely successful Trouble in Mind, starring Tanya Moodie and directed by Laurence Boswell, which transferred from Theatre Royal Bath to Print Room at the Coronet earlier this year.
