Sherborne at the Edinburgh Festival

Under the guidance of director-in-residence Bart Lee and theatre manager Jim Donnelly, Sherborne School staged an absurdist play about plays at this year's Edinburgh Festival. The Actor's Nightmare, a comedy by Christopher Durang gained three stars from the Sunday Times Festival reviewer Christopher Hart (see here).  Hart says:

"...it was enthusiastically acted by the boys under Lee's professional direction..."

The production finished on 9 August after a run of 8 nights. It was first performed earlier in the year in the Powell Theatre and the cast included Henry Comyn (d), Laurie Blair (b), Tom Oxenham (c), Ludo Hughes (a) and Hubert Mainwaring-Burton (g).
