Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch announces the cast of Tales from the Thames
Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch is pleased to announce the cast of Tales from the Thames, touring to community venues in South Essex from 26 June to 10 July 2021.
The cast includes Tim Freeman (A View from the Bridge, Protocol Productions), Mia Jerome (Lost Lending Library, Punchdrunk), Tom Mangan is the co-artistic director of multi-award winning theatre company Rendered Retina and Lisa Wright (Sunny Afternoon, UK Tour).
Tales from the Thames is a Queen's Theatre Hornchurch and Creative Estuary co-commission.
Five lives collide one day along the banks of the Thames, and their future is changed forever.
The sun rises over the river, and everything's coming to life. Dawn chorus plays, jobs are started, engines turned on, containers crashed onto ships and journeys made. But today is different...
Can fractured relationships and fears of the future be overcome by stopping for a moment, taking in the vista and listening to the water as it brings stories and memories to the shore?
This is an epic story of the majestic Thames and its community. It's about the power of coming together. And about winning a pop quiz…
With live music and songs written by MG Boulter, this newly commissioned piece is deeply inspired by the Essex Thames Estuary and is made for and by the people who live and work alongside it.
Tales from the Thames is free to attend for everyone - tickets available from Monday 7 June 2021.
The venues and dates of performances of Tales from the Thames are:
