You Can Still Make a Killing
by Nicholas Pierpan
Directed by Matthew Dunster
10 October – 3 November 2012
SOUTHWARK PLAYHOUSE – Main House
Four years on from the collapse of Lehman Brothers and still we find ourselves in crisis. It’s time to work out what’s wrong. It’s time to look at the heart of the system.
You Can Still Make a Killing is the story of the normal men and women who fill the City’s institutions, of a world radically altered when right became wrong, and of the private worlds that fall apart when there are no alternatives in sight.
You Can Still Make a Killing reunites award winning playwright Nicholas Pierpan with director Matthew Dunster following their 2010 collaboration on Pierpan’s The Maddening Rain (Old Red Lion, Soho Theatre), which Metro heralded “an astute and gripping play”★★★★ and the Sunday Times described as “nailing the mania for money that led to the financial collapse”. The cast includes the talents of Kellie Bright (Love and Money, Royal Exchange and Young Vic), Alecky Blythe, who returns to acting following three years as a playwright during which she wrote the award winning London Road (National Theatre) and Robert Gwilym (Love the Sinner, National Theatre).
Cast includes: Kellie Bright, Alecky Blythe, Max Calandrew,Tim Delap, Robert Gwilym, Ben Lee, Claire Lichie, William Mannering, Marianne Oldham, David Partridge and Elexi Walker
Tickets: £10, £14, £18
