Following on from the success of "Roleplay" at Chester Little Theatre, Chester based theatre company Against The Grain are back with 'Curtains', a brand new original play from the pen of Stuart Evans and Mark Newman which puts the off-stage drama surrounding a troupe of actors firmly in the spotlight.
Having worked in professional and amateur theatre for over 50 years between them, as Actors, Directors and Writers, Stuart and Mark have drawn on their own experiences to write 'Curtains' which tells the story of actors Dominic and Percival who meet an audition. 20 years later, having become close friends, they share a dressing room when appearing in an 'innovative' production of 'Hamlet', swapping anecdotes with older colleagues and complaining about younger ones, but still waiting for their big break. ‘Curtains’ is by turns hilarious and poignant, with characters who are immediate, relatable, funny and genuine.
