London on 18 - 30 May - 7.30pm
Say what you like but theres been a crime committed. More than one I should say February, 1949. The tenants of a boarding house in Camden Town, alerted by the smell of gas from Number Three, discover a young man lying unconscious and the signs of a suicide attempt. Hastening towards his address book, they phone the first name on the list. It is none other than Mr Terence Rattigan. Kenny Morgan is the unflinching new play from Mike Poulton (Tony nominated for his Broadway versions of Fortunes Fool, Wolf Hall, and Bring Up The Bodies). A volatile tale of secrets and lies, destructive passions and unrequited love, it shines a light on the turbulent relationship between the actor Kenneth Morgan and Terence Rattigan, one of the twentieth centurys most celebrated playwrights. Drawing on the real-life events behind one of Rattigans greatest plays, The Deep Blue Sea, this heart-wrenching drama premieres at Arcola in a powerful new production by Lucy Bailey (Fortunes Fool, Old Vic; Titus Andronicus, Shakespeares Globe). Two-time Olivier nominee Paul Keating takes on the title role, opposite Simon Dutton as Terence Rattigan.
