Maria Friedman, John Gordon Sinclair, Gary Wilmot, et al. Set for Menier Chocolate Factory’s Invisible Man

Michael Beckley, Gerard Carey, Natalie Casey, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Maria Friedman, Christopher Godwin, Teddy Kempner, John Gordon Sinclair, Jo Stone-Fewings, and Gary Wilmot will be featured in Ken Hill’s The Invisible Man, to run at the Menier Chocolate Factory, November 13-February 13, with an official opening on November 24. Ian Talbot will direct.

H.G. Wells’s classic tale is retold as a music hall spectacular, with the previously announced Paul Kieve providing illusions.

Set in the rustic village of Iping, the local inhabitants recount the mysterious happenings of the week that the sinister Griffin arrived wrapped in bandages and with a distinctly unsociable manner.

The creative team will also include scenic designer Paul Farnsworth, costume designer Matthew Wright, lighting designer Jason Taylor, and sound designer Gareth Owen. Steve Edis will provide original music and Sam Spencer-Lane will choreograph.
