Some of the hottest London theatre tickets are issued by the National Theatre. One of the unsung heroes of this institution is Wendy Spon who is head of casting. She has ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the country’s finest actors are happy to work for the National and contribute to its worldwide reputation. Some actors return to the National again and again and this is because they are not only fine actors but good box office. Their names and faces on posters ensure increased sales of theatre tickets. These include luminaries such as Simon Russell Beale, Alex Jennings, Fiona Shaw and Zoe Wanamaker. Others are made into stars by the National. British theatre is widely hailed as the finest in the world and the National Theatre represents its pinnacle. It revives classic texts not only from the United Kingdom but from around the world. It premieres the work of some of our greatest living playwrights such as Alan Bennett and Howard Brenton and it also encourages new writers. Marianne Elliott, one of the National’s associate directors has just revived Middleton’s â€Women Beware Women’, a story of lust, murder and intrigue. It is currently booking until June but is expected to run beyond that date. The star of the show is undoubtedly Harriet Walter. She is one of our best known classical actresses. Her roles for the Royal Shakespeare Company include Cleopatra, Viola in â€Twelfth Night’ and Imogen in â€Cymbeline’. Her films include â€Sense and Sensibility’, â€Bright Young Things’ and â€Bedrooms and Hallways’. She is joined by Samuel James who was so impressive in Frantic Assembly’s production of â€Stockholm’.
