Rehearsals have just started for Laura Wade’s new play at Chichester Festival Theatre and in the cast are two OSD One Year Course grads, Cat White and Laurence Ubong Williams.
The Watsons is Laura Wade’s adaptation of Jane Austen’s unfinished novel. Laura’s previous plays include Posh which transferred to the West End from the Royal Court, and then onto the big screen as The Riot Club; Tipping the Velvet (Lyric Hammersmith and Edinburgh) and Home I’m Darling for Theatr Clwyd and the National Theatre.
The production is directed by celebrated actor Samuel West who was formerly Artistic Director of Sheffield Theatres.
