Jonathan Harvey’s classic play, Beautiful Thing, will run at the Arts Theatre in the West End from 13th April – 25th May. The West End run will be followed by a short UK tour visiting Liverpool, Leeds and Brighton. Directed by Nikolai Foster, and designed by Colin Richmond, the production will star Suranne Jones as ‘Sandra’, Zaraah Abrahams as ‘Leah’, Oliver Farnworth as ‘Tony and introducing Jake Davies as ‘Jamie’ and Danny-Boy Hatchard, making his professional debut as ‘Ste’. Nancy Sullivan and Luke Baker will also join the company as understudy covers.
Beautiful Thing is a glorious urban love story between two young men set on an inner city housing estate. It tells the story of teenager Jamie’s relationship with classmate and neighbour Ste. Together the two boys find comedy, warmth and the music of Mama Cass through their loud-mouthed next door neighbour Leah. The play exquisitely depicts what it is to be sixteen, in the first flush of love, and full of optimism.
