Train: three one-act plays by Eugene O’Neill. The plays, written between 1913 and 1918, are being presented together for the first time.Ruth will act in The Web and Before Breakfast, directed by Sam Yates, and will make her directorial debut with The Dreamy Kid. Combining live music with immersive design, all housed in the intimate setting of Grade II listed Hoxton Hall (built 1863, seating an audience of 125), The El. Train will run for a limited four-week season from 6th December until 30 December (with press nights on the 12 13 December).Design is by Richard Kent, with lighting by Neil Austin and original composition and sound design by Alex Baranowski. The El. Train is being produced by Found Productions. Further casting will be announced shortly.Sam Yates said: “I’m thrilled to be presenting three of Eugene O’Neill’s lesser-known, one-act plays at London s historic Hoxton Hall. Written when O’Neill was in his 20s, these sometimes violent, passionate works show the undeniable genius of one of America s greatest dramatists. I am delighted to be directing Ruth Wilson in Before Breakfast and The Web, and that she makes her directing debut with The Dreamy Kid.”After a special gala performance of One Man, Two Guvnors last night (17th October), the cast and VIP Guests enjoyed a post show party at Mint Leaf.

New play tackles mental wounds of war for one night only at the Palace TheatreOn Armistice Day, Monday 11th November, London’s Palace Theatre will stage a special performance of Dreams from the Pit, in aid of the veterans’ mental health charity Combat Stress.Dreams from the Pit is a new play that follows three British soldiers, Razor, Jacko and Sully, on deployment to Afghanistan. Based on extensive interviews with veterans, members of the Armed Forces and their families, it’s an insight into the frontline experience of today’s troops and the difficulties some face in readjusting to civilian life. Gritty, authentic and often funny, the play aims to make us all more aware of mental health issues associated with military service.Writer and director Emma King-Farlow bases this production on the war in Afghanistan, but has taken the title of the play from Siegfried Sassoon’s WW1 poem, Does It Matter?, a pithy appraisal of war injuries from the soldiers’ perspective. “Mental health problems among veterans, and the impact they have on the people around them, are still very hard for many people to acknowledge and talk about,” she said. “The problem has been around for a very long time.”The reason I love theatre is because of the power it has to completely change the way somebody feels. Theatre is the most powerful art form, whether it makes you laugh, cry or feel inspired and motivated; seeing a story unfold before your eyes can be the most incredible thing. I am a huge supporter of new writing, there is nothing more exciting than taking your seat at the theatre and not having a clue what to expect.
