Genius Premieres April 23 with Thomas Morris

Genius premieres on April 23 on National Geographic at 9pm with Thomas playing the role of Ernst.

Genius is a show that explores the turbulent journey of the physicist who would grow to become the icon: Albert Einstein. Fiercely independent, innately brilliant, eternally curious, Einstein changed the way we view the universe. Consequently, this series will change the way we view Einstein. From his early failures and achievements in the world of academics to his emotionally fraught search for love and human connection, the ten-part event paints a portrait of the real Albert Einstein in all his complexity.

Ian Houghton – This House

Ian will be performing in This House at the Garrick Theatre from 21st November to 25th February 2017.

Is a political revolution coming? Will the Labour party collapse? Can the kingdom stay united?

It’s 1974. And Westminster is about to go to war with itself.

Set in the engine rooms of the House of Commons, James Graham’s This House dives deep into the secret world of the Whips who roll up their sleeves and go to often farcical lengths to influence an unruly chorus of MPs within the Mother of all Parliaments.

In an era of chaos, both hilarious and shocking, fist fights break out in the parliamentary bars, high-stake tricks and games are played, while sick or dying MPs are carried through the lobby to register their crucial votes as the government hangs by a thread.

Reginald Edwards – Scouse: A Comedy of Terrors

Reg is currently in rehearsals for the role of Macka in the production of Scouse: A Comedy of Terrors at The Dome in Liverpool from November 17th to December 15th.

The Liverpool People’s Party calls for Liverpool to be recognised as an independent republic by the UN, the EU, NATO and UEFA. The UK government objects and sends in the army…

“The people of Liverpool, and the Liverpool People’s Party, invite the Prime Minister to mind his own business.   Here in Liverpool, we’re nearer to space than we are to London.  London is two hundred miles away; space is only one hundred miles away. People here pay as much heed to the Prime Minister as we do to the man in the moon.” – Macka

SCOUSE (A COMEDY OF TERRORS) was first performed at the Everyman Theatre in February 1997 to sell out audiences.
