Robert Daws Leads A Star Cast In Alan Ayckbourn’s Hilarious Ten Times Table
Ten
Times Table
Newcastle
Theatre Royal
Monday
4th – Saturday 8th November 2019
It’s
a ‘fete’ worse than death when an all-star cast heads to Newcastle Theatre
Royal in multi-award-winning writer Alan Ayckbourn’s hilarious comedy Ten Times Table.
The star cast is led by TV and
stage actor Robert Daws, who is
most loved for his role as Dr. Gordon Ormerod in The Royal as well as
his time in other hit shows such as Poldark, Outside Edge and Roger
Roger. Joining him is Deborah Grant, best known for playing Wendy in Not
Going Out and Deborah Bergerac in Bergerac. Emmerdale and Holby City
star Gemma Oaten is joined by Robert
Duncan of Drop The Dead Donkey fame and theatre veteran Mark Curry, well known for his
appearances in Hollyoaks and as Kevin in Last Of The Summer Wine.
Craig Gazey, famous for his
portrayal of Graeme Proctor in Coronation Street completes the cast,
alongside Elizabeth Power known
for playing Christine Hewitt in EastEnders.
In
the long-since ‘grand’ ballroom of the local Swan Hotel, a most miscellaneous
assemblage gathers to conduct the business of the Pendon Folk Festival, led by
excitable chairman Ray.
Unfortunately,
for Ray, his calamitous committee quickly divides, as his wife Helen has a bone
to pick…
Add a
Marxist schoolteacher, a military dog-breeder and an octogenarian secretary,
and the table is set for one of comedy master Ayckbourn’s most hilarious plays.
This tumultuous comedy by committee is not to be missed.
The production will be
directed by Robin Herford known for his work on the West End hit The Woman
In Black, with lighting design by Jason Taylor and sound by Dan Samson. Set
and costume design is by Michael Holt.
