The Actors Centre: Declan Tickets

About The Actors Centre: Declan

Set in a Wiltshire suburb, Declan is a contemporary ghost story, exploring isolation, fear of the outside world and the distance between two friends. As Jimbo recalls the disappearance of his best friend Declan, he is plagued by ghosts of the past, present and future, and the boundaries between the real and imagined, the dead and the living, become blurred. With the scent of Declan thick in the air, this is a story of magic realism and total obsession. This new production is directed by playwright, director and actor Alexis Gregory, following his 2020 residency at Soho Theatre, London for Sex/Crime and a UK tour of the critically acclaimed verbatim piece Riot Act. With videography by award-winning filmmaker Layke Anderson (Mankind and Dylan’s Room), the digital play is available to be streamed for ten days (19 – 28 June). The digital streaming of Declan raises funds for the #SupportTheActorsCentre appeal – a campaign backed notably by actress and activist Joanna Lumley OBE during the Covid-19 crisis. The play is programmed to make its on-stage debut at The Actors Centre later this year.
