A Woman of No Importance
Lord Illingworth
Olivier award-winner Eve Best (A Moon for the Misbegotten and Hedda Gabler) and BAFTA-nominated actress Anne Reid (Last Tango in Halifax) star in this new classically staged production of Oscar Wilde’s comedy directed by Dominic Dromgoole, former Artistic Director of Shakespeare’s Globe. The first play from the Classic Spring Theatre Company’s Oscar Wilde Season, A Woman of No Importance will be captured live for cinemas from the Vaudeville Theatre in London’s West End. An earnest young American woman, a louche English lord, and an innocent young chap join a house party of fin de siècle fools and grotesques. Nearby a woman lives, cradling a long-buried secret. First performed in 1893, Oscar Wilde’s marriage of glittering wit and Ibsenite drama satirised the socially conservative world of the Victorian upper-class, creating a vivid new theatrical voice which still resonates today.
Measure for Measure - Live at Shakespeare's Globe
Duke Vincentio
Vincentio, Duke of Vienna, disgusted by the immorality in his city, announces his withdrawal from public life and leaves his deputy, the puritanical Angelo, in charge. Angelo, in his zeal for observing the letter of the law, begins a ruthless programme to stamp out sexual licence, in the course of which he condemns one Claudio to death. Surely Claudio’s virginal sister Isabella, a novice nun seeking mercy for her brother, could not awake the lust of this cold, censorious man?
National Theatre Live: Medea
Aegeus, King of Athens
Medea is a wife and a mother. For the sake of her husband, Jason, she’s left her home and borne two sons in exile. But when he abandons his family for a new life, Medea faces banishment and separation from her children. Cornered, she begs for one day’s grace. It’s time enough. She exacts an appalling revenge and destroys everything she holds dear.
A Doll's House
Torvald Helmer
In Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, Nora Helmer, having fraudulently borrowed money to save her husband, is forced to reveal her secret and, in doing so, reassess her life as it stands. This production, directed by Carrie Cracknell, was captured by Digital Theatre live at London’s Young Vic theatre.
Henry VIII - Live at Shakespeare's Globe
Henry VIII
The Tudor Court is locked in a power struggle between its nobles and the Machiavellian Cardinal Wolsey, the King's first minister and the country's most conspicuous symbol of Catholic power. Wolsey's ambition knows no bounds and when his chief ally, Queen Katherine, interferes in the King's romance with Ann Bullen, he brings ruin upon himself, the Queen and centuries of English obedience to Rome.
Shakespeare's Globe: As You Like It
Touchstone
Thea Sharrock's irresistible 2009 production of Shakespeare's popular romantic comedy stirs wit, sentiment, intrigue and love into a charming confection which challenges the traditional rules of romance. At its heart, a feisty but feminine Rosalind (Naomi Frederick), in love with the endearingly naïve Orlando (Jack Laskey), uses her disguise as Ganymede to counsel him playfully in the art of wooing. Distraction is provided by Dominic Rowan, a remarkably funny Touchstone, and Tim McMullan, whose sonorous tones are perfectly suited to the lugubrious wit of Jaques. Filmed in High Definition and true surround sound.

Michael goes to pieces when Sally leaves, losing his job and self-respect. He turns to Archie for solace and man's best friend leads him to the disparate but caring members of a local dog club who just might be able to help him win back Sally.

La Biblia: David
Abschalom
Las tribus de Israel necesitan un rey para derrotar a la fuerza superior de los filisteos. El profeta Samuel da a los hebreos su primer rey, Saúl, un simple granjero, quien con la ayuda de Dios se convierte en un guerrero valiente y poderoso que dirige a las tribus unidas de Israel contra sus enemigos. Saulo, sin embargo, tiene dudas incesantes sobre su misión. No es lo suficientemente confiable de la sabiduría divina, actúa por su propia voluntad y por lo tanto los pecados contra el Señor. El influyente profeta Samuel se aleja de Saúl con el fin de seleccionar a un nuevo rey según la voluntad de Dios: David. Cuando David sale victorioso de su encuentro con Goliat, el guerrero de los filisteos más potente, se convierte en un héroe. Su fama despierta los celos del rey Saúl, quien siente que David le va a disputar su reinado. (FILMAFFINITY)
