STILL LIFE
At the Theatre Royal Drury Lane
Written by Noël Coward
Directed by Tam Williams
Welcome to Still Life at the Drury Lane Theatre. First performed in the West End in 1936, the timeless story of a chance meeting at a railway station has become one of Noël Coward’s most beloved and enduring works.
While waiting for the performance to begin, look below for details of this production’s cast and crew, alongside some very special features. The Coward Archive’s Julie Gambling takes us through the history of Coward’s original short play anthology, Tonight at 8:30, alongside extracts from the playwright’s original hand-written notes. This production’s director, Tam Williams, and producer, Sally Hughes, stopped by for a podcast discussion of the play, and film journalist James Harvey discusses the very British legacy of the film adaptation which made Still Life famous - Brief Encounter.
We hope you enjoy the journey.
