Never to the dark side Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 After a two year suspension the play "The red lion" continues at the old vic until saturday 19 February(the day of the Middlesbrough home match) As the we are in action on Sunday,can I suggest that the performance at 3pm this coming saturday would be a better option if you don't like "visting" the Bristol City centre at night time. Just tell your parents,sorry,tell your Grand parents they will lenjoy the play With the Middlesbrough game on saturday week having more pull-a-bilty that the same day 3pm matinee performance. I have this vision of loads of the "other lot" in the audience on saturday week Note of caution the play last the same length of time as a normal football match BUT no half time break So don't drink too much before you arrive and visit the toilets before you take your seats See all you hoardes there on Saturday as well as all you hordes at Swansea on Sunday 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 I’d really like to have seen this, but not doing indoor stuff due to covid. Missing the basketball too at the mo’ as it’s indoors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the Net Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I've been to see this, and highly recommend it. Excellent performances by the three actors, the 90 minutes flew by. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I had tickets for the first (pre covid) run but obviously the world caught the Vids and it never happened, unfortunately I haven't found the time to rebook for the latest run. Glad those who have been have enjoyed it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfc01 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Saw it some time ago in one of the tiny galleried theatres in the old vic where you're very close to the actors - some people at ground level are a couple of metres from them at times. Quite intimate. Dave Lloyd and Joe Sims are two of the actors so very "local." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same set up in the Studio at The Old Vic - I was a bit worried in case one of the actors tripped over somebody's foot in the front row! The lad who plays Jordan, the young footballer, is also local, and was chosen via open casting - very talented too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he played in the same youth team as Joe Morrell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
