The Wisdom of Eve by Mary Orr and Reginald Denham
Directed by Peter Medd
Performances: Tuesday 6th to Saturday 10th October 2009, Bell Theatre
You probably missed the story of Eve when it was first published back in 1946, and maybe you have never seen the film that was made of it in 1950, but now you have an unprecendented opportunity to see the rarely presented stage version - and the stage, afterall, is what it is really all about. With drunkenes and 'snoggery', and New York Theatre snobbery, playwrights and producers lounge around on sofas, while publicists pounce upon promising young startlets and devastatingly attractive actresses step in and out of innumerable costumes before your very eyes - all enacted under lighting that will enable you to explore the darkest depths of our protagonists' minds, upon a set that will seem to have a mind of its own. You may even discover how to become a super-star yourself!
