Introducing the world premiere of Sarah Dickenson's The Commotion Time, produced by Exeter Northcott! 📜 Local history takes centre stage in this landmark drama, featuring an ensemble of local performers alongside professional actors. 🎭 February 1547. When the authorities introduce reforms set to drive division into the heart of the community, the people take action in the only way left to them; marching to Exeter to challenge the king and finally be heard. As well as being Exeter Northcott’s welcome return to home-produced drama, The Commotion Time will also be the first production directed for the theatre by our new Creative Director, Martin Berry. Created in association with Poundstock Gildhouse. Find out more 👀 https://lnkd.in/ewSGm34i

  • The Commotion Time artwork: A young woman wearing historical clothing (white shirt under a yellow dress) is seen from neck to waist. In her outstretched hands she holds a miniature Gildhouse, set atop a mound of grassy earth. The earth falls through her fingers. Text reads: 'The Commotion Time', 'The Western Rising and Siege of Exeter: It Takes a Village to raise an Army', 'Made by Exeter Northcott Theatre', 'By Sarah Dickenson, Directed by Martin Berry, Created in Association with Poundstock Gildhouse'.

Looking forward to hearing more about this!
