Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
Cast: Stuart Richman.
A well written story needs a powerful performance in which to hang its tale upon and they don’t come much more emotionally and spiritually brilliant than Isaac Bashevis Singer’s A Day of Pleasure and the man who enraptures and leads an audience through the near derelict streets and run down housing of pre and post First World war Warsaw, the outstanding Stuart Richman.
The world première tour of A Day of Pleasure, a new play adapted by The Useful Donkey Theatre Company based on Isaac Bashevis Singer’s award-winning book, will debut at the Playhouse Studio. Performed by Everyman founding company member Stuart Richman it will run from Thursday 26th to Saturday 28th September.
“Only the dreamers, who dream while awake, call back the shadows of the past and braid from unspun threads, unspun nets.” – Isaac Bashevis Singer
The evening before he travels to Stockholm to collect the Nobel Prize for Literature, Isaac Bashevis Singer – a passionate, brilliant storyteller – recalls a fascinating childhood full of mystery, torment and adventure.
