The Compassionate Satirist
performed by Timothy Ackroyd

We are privileged to welcome this riveting entertainment devised and penned by Brian Sewell and Timothy Ackroyd, with direction (or varnishing) from Peter O’Toole.
After the interval Brian Sewell has kindly agreed to a short Question and Answer session on any subject other than Hogarth!
“A brilliant and convincing recreation of this tortured humorist. The script and interpretations are marvels of imaginative recreation.”

LOVE LETTERS
by A R Gurney
with
Colin Baker and
Louise Jameson
LOVE LETTERS chronicles the lives, loves, triumphs and tragedies of Andrew Makepeace Ladd the 3rd and Melissa Gardner through their correspondence spanning more than a generation. With a bittersweet theme artfully disguised as comedy, it highlights the subtle yet potentially deadly flaws of upbringing and social conventions amongst America’s rich elite.
Although possessed by an irresistible mutual attraction, this pair of star-crossed lovers live their lives mainly at a distance, writing frequently over the 40+ years the play covers. It is a tale of youthful passions, bold behaviour, stupidity, blind jealousy, but ultimately and tragically one that proves the old adage that the course of true love never did run smooth. It is an elegant and witty evening, beautifully crafted by one of America’s most gifted and prolific playwrights.
