Summer 2013

April to July 2013Box office: 01225 463362

Welcome to The RONDO – Summer 2013

Summertime......and The Rondo is easy. Easy on the eye; easy on the ear; and, most importantly, easy on the pocket.

Join us for a brilliant season of fun, japes, shenanigans, pleasures, exuberances, escapades, larks, amusements, fol-de-rols and, well, plays.

We’ve got great interpretations of the classics (with the occasional tongue in the odd cheek) such as The Count of Monte Cristo, Jane Eyre, Pickwick Papers, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the mighty Machamlear, which conflates Macbeth, Hamlet and King Lear into one huge Shakespearean soap opera.

There’s gorgeous music, courtesy of My Sweet Patootie and Ritchie-Parrish-Ritchie, as well as comedy from Robin Ince, Tom Craine and Mark Thomas (who’s previewing yet another new show!).

And speaking of new, we have brand new plays from our own Scriptwriting Group, our own Playwriting Competition, and the utterly amazing 24 Hour Plays project, where five brand new pieces will be written, rehearsed and performed in, erm, 24 hours.

There’s loads more – but don’t let me detain you. Have a peruse through our fantastic Summer season brochure, and see what tickles your fancy.

The Count of Monte CristoBy Alexandre Dumas; directed and adapted by Andy Burden

thu 25 – Sat 27 apr • 8pmFull £12 Concs £10 • professional theatre

Company Boudin’s energetic, exciting and rousing adaptation of the epic book that everyone wishes they had the time to read.

Edmund Dantes is wrongly imprisoned by his rivals. Incarcerated in Cahateau d’If, a fellow prisoner assists in his escape and tells of a secret stash of treasure on a remote island. Dantes reinvents himself as the Count of Monte Cristo and sets out to reward those who had stood by him and to seek his revenge on those who had him arrested.

The book is retold and re-enacted by the workers of a cigar factory who are read “Monte Cristo” everyday whilst they work, but quickly the factory disappears and we are transported into the dramatic world of Dumas’ book.

From the company who brought you Henry V and the director of Henry VIII & The Royal Wedding Planner, Pinocchio and A Christmas Carol.

Me and My DadBy Nick Lane. Directed by Keith Hukin

Fri 3 may • 8pm • Full £12 Concs £10 • professional theatre

Dave Lees’ dad Pete is the sort of bloke who needs a recipe for toast. The kind of guy who thinks that tortilla fought King Kong and that Tiramisu played midfield for Brazil in the 1974 World Cup. In a word, he’s terrible. Good at Subbuteo; hopeless with spaghetti.

So when Jean, Dave’s mum, dies, Dave does the decent thing – he puts his failing acting career on hold and moves back home to teach his dad how to cook. Fighting memories (and occasionally each other) and risking the sanity of relatives and neighbours, not to mention Dave’s girlfriend, the pair set to the task with gusto – well, Dave does – in an attempt to save Pete from a diet of pickled beetroot and jam sandwiches. Not necessarily in that order.

Can their relationship survive? Or is this one kitchen nightmare even Gordon Ramsay couldn’t fix?

A bittersweet comedy from Nick Lane, the writer of My Favourite Summer and Housebound.

When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead And the White Knight is talking backwards And the Red Queen’s “off with her head!” Remember what the dormouse said; “Feed your head…Feed your head”

White Rabbit Jefferson Airplane

In a year that has already seen us unearth and demystify a monarch in a car park, follow the continued effects of media hacking and in a time of austerity, engage with the aesthetic more than ever, the Rondo Scriptwriting Group has been dealt the hand of Perspective.

Under the leadership of David Lassman and Director Shane Morgan, the writers have taken ideas close to their heart and turned them upside down. Questions like: can old school and new ways work side by side? What makes a hero and what makes a villain? When the end comes, who do we trust? When we laugh, is it really because of the way he tells them?
