SOCIALLY-DISTANCED PERFORMANCES AVAILABLE IN NEW VIC’S AUTUMN SEASON

1st October 2021

The New Vic are continuing to offer some socially-distanced performances at the theatre during its autumn season of plays.

Putting customer confidence at the heart of the season, there’s at least one socially-distanced performance available per play for those who would feel more comfortable with some extra space during their trip post-lockdown.

The theatre continues its autumn season of plays in October, welcoming London Classic Theatre back to their stage with Alan Ayckbourn’s comic masterpiece of social climbing in 1970s suburbia, Absurd Person Singular. Running from Wednesday 20 to Saturday 23 October, a socially-distanced performance will take place on Thursday 21 October at 7.30pm.

London Classic Theatre’s production of Alan Ayckbourn’s Absurd Person Singular visits the New Vic this October.

Following this, the John Godber Company will bring Sunny Side Up, a hilarious and moving account of a struggling Yorkshire coast B&B and the people who run it, to the stage from Tuesday 26 October to Saturday 30 October, with socially distanced performances on Wednesday 27 October at 7.30pm and Saturday 30 October at 2.15pm.

The John Godber Company’s Sunny Side Up, coming to the New Vic at the end of October, tells the story of a struggling B&B.
