1. Vincent in Brixton - Orange Tree Theatre
About: Before the sunflowers, before the madness, before the fame, there was a quiet kitchen in South London.
It's 1873, when Ursula's modest boarding house is disrupted by the unexpected arrival of a young lodger by the name of Vincent van Gogh. As the household is thrown into chaos, the intimacy of daily life sparks something unexpected between them: longing, purpose and transformation.
The OT presents the first major revival of Nicholas Wright's Olivier Award-winning Vincent in Brixton. It is directed by the OT's Carne Associate Director Georgia Green, following her much-admired production of The Mikvah Project.
When: 14 March - 18 April.
