A DAY IN THE DEATH OF JOE EGG   
Civic Theatre Newcastle          Fri 20th August 2010 -- Sat 21st August 2010
 

Critical Stages & White Box Production

 

Listed by London’s National Theatre as one of the most significant plays of the 20th Century, A Day in the Death of Joe Egg is quite simply a modern classic.  Written by one of the UK’s great living writers, Peter Nichols, this thought provoking and very funny play has been loved by audiences worldwide.

Brian (Bri) and Sheila are a young married couple.  They care for their daughter, nicknamed ‘Joe Egg’, and are the model of bravery and courage in the face of adversity.  Living by the rule that if you don’t laugh you’ll cry, it’s fortunate that Bri is a natural born entertainer.  But what lies beneath Bri’s funny lounge room antics?  We find out when two unwanted guests start to poke their noses where they don’t belong.

Compelling and heartfelt, the play bubbles along with exuberance, comedy and witty performances.
