The Bridge Project: The Cherry Orchard and The Winter’s Tale

The unprecedented three-year, transatlantic partnership unites The Old Vic with Brooklyn Academy of Music and Neal Street Productions. Academy Award-winner, Sam Mendes, returns to the London stage to direct a formidable group of actors in a double-bill of revered classics: The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov in a new version of the play by Tom Stoppard and a new staging of The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare. The transatlantic cast will include Simon Russell
Beale, Sinéad Cusack, Richard Easton, Rebecca Hall, Josh Hamilton, Ethan Hawke and Paul Jesson. Both plays will be performed in repertoire throughout the run.
