Based on the novel by Ali Smith, Adapted by Harry McDonald, Directed by Charlotte VickersSummer 2016. Britain has voted to leave the European Union, Elisabeth has returned home to the village she grew up in, and her elderly former next-door neighbour Daniel won’t wake up. New fences are going up, the library is closed, and her mother keeps talking about the latest antiques show on TV.
Elsewhere, the sleeping Daniel Gluck dreams – of his long-lost little sister, of Christine Keeler; of art, poetry and music.
From writer Harry McDonald (Foam, Don’t Smoke in Bed) and director Charlotte Vickers (Sap, Andromeda) comes an adaptation of Ali Smith’s Booker-Prize shortlisted novel. As the divides between people become ever starker, Autumn finds connections across time and experience, and the resilience of the most unlikely of love stories.
📍 Venue Description : Park Theatre delivers world-class theatre
==========================================
The innovative Park Theatre London was created by Artistic Director Jez Bond and Creative Director Melli Bond. The Bonds underwent a six-year search across London for the perfect building that could represent their artistic aims and also their aspirations for inclusivity and diversity. Their efforts would prove successful when they stumbled upon a vacant office block next to Finsbury Park station in 2010.
How Park Theatre came to be
----------------------------
Support from the theatre community played a pivotal part in order for the theatre to thrive. Notable figures who backed the theatre include Alan Rickman and Ian McKellen. Once the press, public and local residents were on board the Bonds were able to raise the necessary funds to convert the abandoned building into the stunning showhouse that it is known to be today. Following a £2.6 million refurbishment, the building, designed by David Hughes Architects, opened in May 2013 to critical acclaim.
