‘Sweethearts’ and ‘The Hooligan’
Emma Wingrove as Jenny
As part of Brighton Fringe 2017, the Foundry Group supported by The Lantern Theatre is proud to present a double bill of masterly short plays by W. S. Gilbert – ‘Sweethearts’, a cynical comic masterpiece dating from 1874 but with timeless observations on the sexes, and ‘The Hooligan’, an unflinching, tragic, yet blackly comic study of a condemned man’s final minutes that was a sensation at its debut in 1911.
Performed by LLoyd Ryan-Thomas (Nominee – Best Actor, Brighton Festival Awards 2014), Emma Wingrove (‘Bite-Size Breakfast’), Nick Bartlett (‘Gangs of New York’) and David Mounfield (‘Count Arthur Strong’s Radio Show’). Directed by Brian Mitchell (Argus Angel winner 2014).
