London Classic Theatre has announced that Alan Ayckbourn’s Absurd Person Singular will run for two weeks at the Theatre Royal Bath in February 2021, after being postponed in March 2020.

The production, directed by Michael Cabot, will star John Dorney as Geoffrey Jackson, Felicity Houlbrooke as Jane Hopcroft, Helen Keeley as Eva Jackson, Rosanna Miles as Marion Brewster-Wright, Graham O’Mara as Ronald Brewster-Wright and Paul Sandys as Sidney Hopcroft. 

Artistic Director Michael Cabot said: “After a difficult year, we are delighted that Theatre Royal Bath have invited us to be part of their new season. We had to postpone the tour of Absurd Person Singular after only three weeks on the road, which left us in a perilous position. Since then, we haven’t received any support from either the Covid-19 Emergency Response Fund or the Culture Recovery Fund, so it has been an extremely challenging few months. This two-week run at Bath feels like a genuine lifeline and the first step on the road of recovery for us. Our cast and stage management team have been incredibly loyal and are all looking forward to getting the show back on stage.”

Absurd Person Singular is scheduled to open on 10 February, running through to 20 February ahead of a spring/summer tour.
