The rotation

Three plays and 61 performances, turned over night by night. Nothing here has a run of its own — they share the same weeks and the same company.

The Beggar’s Opera

John Gay and Johann Christoph Pepusch 17 performances

Gay and Pepusch, with a nine-piece band on the stage and the ballads sung as ballads. Three hundred years old and still the rudest thing in the season.

18 Aug – 30 Sep

Uncle Vanya

Anton Chekhov, in a new version by Ruth Falk 16 performances

Chekhov, in a new version by Ruth Falk. The estate has been run for twenty-five years for a man who turns out not to have been worth it.

11 Aug – 22 Sep

The Weir Keeper

Aoife Brennan 28 performances

A new play. Forty years after the valley was flooded, the man who opens and closes the sluices is asked to open them one more time.

4 Aug – 2 Oct
