North by Northwest
21ST JULY - 12TH AUGUST 2017
Design by Simon Phillips.
All Scene All Props were thrilled be part of the UK Premiere of NORTH BY NORTHWEST this summer for the Theatre Royal in Bath. A stunning new stage adaptation of Alfred Hitchcock's supreme comedy of suspense, adaptated by Carolyn Burns and directed by Simon Phillips. An umissable theatrical spectacular which recieved it's world premiere in Melbourne in 2015.
"When Roger O. Thornhill, a suave and successful advertising executive, is abducted by thugs who insist he is a man called George Kaplan, there's obviously been a mix up. When they don't believe him, that's infuriating. When they to kill him, that's frightening. And when they pin a murder on him, that's time to run!"
NORTH BY NORTHWEST will run at the Theatre Royal Bath from Friday 21st July until Saturday 12th August 2017 . For more information and to book tickets, click here.
Reviews:
Daily Mail: ***** 5 stars
"Some of the toy scenery in the projections looks like something out of Thunderbirds but that accentuates the spirit of the playfulness and melodrama"
"...it would not surprise me if this show headed east by southeast to the West End."
Financial Times: **** 4 stars
"A clever staging of Hitchcock's classic... there is even a quasi-Hitchcock fat-bald-man cameo"
The Times: **** 4 stars
"The entire production fits together like a sophisticated watch mechanism."
