WORLD PREMIERE
The Gate Theatre and Headlong Theatre presents LULU FRANK WEDEKIND
ADAPTED AND DIRECTED BY ANNA LEDWICH
Who are you?
How far are you prepared to go?
What are you prepared to become?
Initially banned for its perceived immorality, LULU follows the fortunes and ultimate tragedy of a young woman, a femme-fatale, who skips from one husband to the next leaving a trail of broken hearts and broken bodies in her wake.
"This ongoing collaboration between the Gate and Headlong confirms both as invaluable agents of experiment and intelligent innovation" TIME OUT on New Directions 2009
Wedekind drew inspiration from circus and variety to create a play that would entertain, thrill and shock. This provocative new production revels in the danger of fatal, decadent desires, harnessing the raw power and precariousness of sexuality to unmask the LULU enigma.

THE KREUTZER SONATA
- The Gate Theatre
5 November - 5 December 2009
By LEO TOLSTOY
Adapted by NANCY HARRIS
A man boards a train: the confined space of the carriage triggers potent memories. Soon he is confessing to a terrible crime, one for which he holds Beethoven’s KREUTZER SONATA responsible.
In 1889, Leo Tolstoy wrote a short story which became instantly notorious. He hoped one day to see it performed to the accompaniment of live music - but it was not to be.
Over a century later musicians and actors come together to bring the story to life for the stage.
A new play about death, desire and Beethoven.

Packaging has become one of the hottest environmental issues in recent years. From being an apparently innocuous and functional part of a product it has been transformed into a controversial component of the marketing process - one which is increasingly required to justify its existence. The nation's favourite brands have risen to the challenge, rethinking and revolutionising the way products are presented. This new exhibition, sponsored by Tesco, explains the importance of packaging, how it has developed over the years and how manufacturers, retailers and designers are working together to adopt a more environmentally-friendly approach.
