Snapdragon Productions UK tour of Richard Bean’s Toast, starring Matthew Kelly, makes its way to Worthing’s Connaught Theatre for a six day run from 14th -19th March, in what is lined up to be Worthing Theatres biggest theatre production of the year. Shortly after their Worthing residency the cast will be heading to New York for the prestigious Brits Off Broadway Season.
Accompanying Matthew Kelly are Simon Greenall, Will Barton, Steve Nicolson, Matt Sutton and John Wark, all reprising their roles from the 2014 Park Theatre run. Kieran Knowles, the sole new cast member, joins the company in the role of Dezzie.
Another Sunday night shift. The smell of bread baking. The industrial thump, thump, thump of the machines that never stop. The ovens are cranked up to full blast, the factory is humming, and everyone wants to be somewhere else.
But this shift is going to be different because, when a crisis hits the factory, the men have more to lose than just their wages.
This brilliantly observed moving and funny play is based on the year Bean spent working in a mass production bread plant with each character inspired by someone he worked alongside.
Toast appears at the Connaught Theatre, Union Place, Worthing, BN11 1LG from Monday 14th to Saturday 19th March 2016 with evening performances at 7:30pm and matinees on Wednesday and Saturday at 2:30pm Tickets priced from £23.50 – £26.50 (Concessions: £21.50 – £24, Friends: £19.50 – £21.50 Students £12.50) can be booked through the Box Office on 01903 206 206 or online at www.worthingtheatres.co.uk
