‘CLASSIC HOLLYWOOD WESTERN BACK WITH A BANG’ The Guardian

Tony and Emmy award-winner Billy Crudup (The Morning Show) and Olivier award-winner Denise Gough (People, Places and Things) are ‘formidable, sensational leads’ (Time Out) in the world premiere of High Noon. Now playing for a strictly limited season until 6 March.

From Oscar Award-winning screenwriter Eric Roth (Forrest Gump) and Olivier Award-winning director Thea Sharrock (Equus) comes High Noon, ‘a story about courage, conscience and what happens when the clock is ticking and no one shows up’ (Culture Magazine).

 

“Classic Hollywood western back with a bang”

The Guardian

Once a searing allegory of Hollywood’s blacklist, High Noon is a gripping adaptation with themes that ‘resonate powerfully today’ (The Guardian).  Courage vs. Cowardice. Justice vs. Peace. Duty vs. Desire. At its heart is the bond between Will Kane and Amy Fowler – a love tested by impossible choices as the clock ticks down to the return of deadly outlaw Frank Miller on the high noon train.

Told in real time, this edge-of-your-seat thriller is a sharp, haunting stage adaptation of the legendary 1952 iconic Western. This isn’t just a play. It’s a wake-up call.

THE CLOCK IS TICKING. Secure your tickets now before it’s too late. Every second counts.
