John Bell’s Ensemble debut, a Reg Livermore one-man show and Ayckbourn’s The Norman Conquests are on the bill.

The Ensemble Theatre celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2018, so in putting together the season Artistic Director Mark Kilmurry wanted to both pay homage to the past but also signal that the Company is looking to the future and moving forward. As part of this, the Ensemble has undertaken a rebranding with a new look brochure.

“We are looking at who we are, what we’re doing and what we’re trying to do – not to change too much but to look at what we are wanting to do more of, particularly co-productions, working with emerging artists, and supporting emerging directors and writers, as well as keeping our core season secure, healthy and fun. I always think variety is the best thing for a season so we’ve got [plays ranging from] Luna Gale, which is more of a challenging drama, to the great Alan Ayckbourn classic The Norman Conquests,” says Kilmurry.
