  • One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest | Altrincham Garrick

    < Back One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest Previous Production Next Production 7 February 2022 to 12 February 2022 By Dale Wasserman From the Novel by Ken Kesey Directed by Joseph Meighan Please Note – Reduced capacity and socially distanced seating for our Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evening performances of this production. Boisterous, ribald and ultimately shattering, One Flew Over the Cuckoo‘s Nest is the unforgettable story of a mental hospital and its inhabitants. When a brash new inmate arrives, the rigid program of the ward, headed by the tyrannical Nurse Ratched, is thrown up for grabs. In a world where sanity means conformity and following the rules is the only way to survive, One Flew Over the Cuckoo‘s Nest is a powerful exploration of both the beauty and the danger of being an original. Volatile and dark, humorous, thought-provoking and with strong language, this play (based on the classic 1962 novel by Ken Kesey and the 1972 film starring Jack Nicholson, which won five major Academy awards) is a true cult classic and will be an unforgettable evening at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse, performed by The Garrick Ensemble. WARNING – this production contains strong language and adult themes. The Garrick Ensemble is a company of 18 – 30 year old aspiring actors from Greater Manchester and Cheshire who perform one production each year as part of the Altrincham Garrick Playhouse Main House Season. The production will be directed by Artistic Director Joseph Meighan. The Garrick Ensemble aims to make theatre that is fresh, innovative and exciting. See the very best of local, up and coming talent before they move forward in the next stages of their careers in the Arts.

  • Ross and Rachel | Altrincham Garrick

    < Back Ross and Rachel Previous Production Next Production 10 May 2021 to 15 May 2021 By James Fritz Directed by Carole Carr Performed by Fiona Primrose Filmed on stage at the Altrincham Garrick Playhouse. Streamed into your homes. Please note that a unique YouTube Link will be sent to you one hour before the start of the performance. No one told them life was gonna be this way… Ross & Rachel . You know the ones. Will they? Won’t they? On. Off. On again. Off again. On a break. Vegas. Emma. “I got off the plane”… Ross & Rachel tells the mind-bending, heart-breaking story of what happens when a couple that was always meant to be together, gets together. And stays together. James Fritz’s play isn’t about Ross Geller and Rachel Green, the ultimate Friends-turned-lovers. But it’s not – not about them. A dark and uncompromising play that explores romance, expectation and mortality, and the idea of ‘happy-ever-after’ – sold to us by rom-coms and sitcoms, whether it’s Ross and Rachel or Romeo and Juliet – and how this affects our real-life relationships. Suitability: 14+ Contains strong language and adult themes which some viewers may find disturbing.
