It is with great pleasure that we bring you The Mission Theatre’s Autumn 2012 Brochure. Our regular audience members will not be surprised to ind in its pages another fabulous season of irst-class entertainment. However, in case you have not yet discovered this beautiful little theatre in the heart of Bath, here are three good reasons for getting to know us:
1. The drama available to you throughout the Autumn here at The Mission is some of the best you will ind in Bath and beyond, and at prices you can afford. No need to go to London to see such blockbusters as Jez Butterworth’s Jerusalem, Richard Harris’ Outside Edge or Tennessee Williams’ Sweet Bird of Youth, they’re all here this season, not to mention the Bath première of Doubt.
2. If you are looking for music and dance, look no further. The Mission’s versatile auditorium has acclaimed acoustics and provides the perfect arena for the concerts, musicals and cabaret events that feature every month from now until Christmas.
3. If you have, or know, talented and creative young people then The Mission Theatre is the place to bring them. Next Stage Youth - our Youth Theatre is second to none and has a membership of 60 youngsters. PTKids runs music classes for 3-11 year olds at The Mission every Saturday. For the ifth year running, the Kids Lit Fest will be delighting younger audiences in September and talented young performers feature throughout our Autumn programme.
Oh, and I should have said there is a fourth reason to get to know us - and that is our delicious Green Room Bistro - see below.

Next Stage’s acclaimed production of Jez Butterworth’s award-winning smash hit
is back in Bath by popular demand, following a sell-out run in January.
It’s St George’s Day, the morning of the local county fair: Johnny “Rooster” Byron, local waster and modern-day Pied Piper, is a wanted man embattled in the Wessex woodland. Facing eviction from his dilapidated mobile home, plying his friends with drink and drugs, ducking and weaving to avoid outraged neighbours, Rooster has little time to enjoy the annual pageant.
Jez Butterworth’s comic, contemporary vision of life in “England’s green and
pleasant land” is compelling theatre. Jerusalem gives voice to the dispossessed and the disaffected in the person of Rooster Byron - a shockingly familiar, modern-day Everyman, played again in this production by Next Stage leading actor Tim Evans.
“Don’t miss this – even if you do have to queue all night for a ticket” Bath Chronicle
“Superb! Visceral and poetic, lusty and bucolic… the set couldn’t be more lifelike and immersive, while Tim Evans’ cocksure, charismatic Rooster could square up to Mark Rylance any day.” Venue

Bestselling biographer (Jane Austen and the
Theatre), author and Jane Austen expert,
Paula Byrne, recently acquired a portrait purporting to be that of Jane Austen. After extensive research, part of which was ilmed and shown on the BBC in December 2011, many eminent Austen experts were also persuaded of its authenticity. There was one notable exception: Deidre Le Faye. Perhaps you agree with Ms Le Faye?
Paula’s most recently published book, entitled Mad World: Evelyn Waugh and the Secrets of Brideshead, reached the Sunday Times top ten bestseller list in 2009. Her next book is near completion with publication in 2013 and is an ‘innovative biography of Jane Austen’.
This Jane Austen Festival event is an informal discussion during which Paula will no doubt discuss her marvellous discovery as well as her current work. Duration 1 hour 30 mins (with interval)

Platform 8 presents
Outside Edgeby Richard Harris
Written by the author of the hilarious “Stepping Out”, Outside Edge takes us to a quiet
village cricket Pavilion and deals with an eventful Saturday afternoon in the lives of
the stalwarts of the village cricket team. Roger struggles to keep together his team to
play against the British Railways Maintenance Division Yeading East, while the wives
and girlfriends of his players help and hinder his efforts to devastating effect when the
team are caught out in more ways than the sporting one.
Richard Harris has created a witty and comic play about how an obsession can affect
the lives of a small group of people. Written with a sympathetic understanding of human
nature, Outside Edge is a great British comedy with the more rare ingedients of bite
and pathos.
Platform 8 return to The Mission Theatre after the company’s acclaimed productions
of The Ghost Train and The Elephant Man.

Next Stage Theatre Company presents
Doubtby John Patrick Shanley
Next Stage Theatre Company is once again proud to announce the Bath première of another
topical, modern, award-winning play.
It begins innocently enough: Father Brendan Flynn, a charismatic priest and teacher at St Nicholas’
School, inspires congregations with his sermons and enthuses pupils with his lessons.
The School’s principal, Sister Aloysius, is the opposite of Father Flynn, reserved, distant and severe.
And she starts to have doubts: a chance word, a suspicious event, a casual remark, these are
enough to make the judgemental nun question Father Flynn’s probity in the most fundamental
of trusts: that between a priest and the boys in his care.
John Patrick Shanley’s play written in 2004, but set in 1960’s New York, is a searing exploration of
topical issues. In 2012 the Catholic Church still faces never-ending accusations of child abuse by
priests, and in this day and age of instant news and social media there is often nowhere for a person
to hide if the rumour mill runs out of control.
Don’t miss this powerful play which challenges audiences to question their own certainties.

OV
Following last year’s sell-out performances of Lehar’s classic The Merry Widow, Bath G&S Society
is back on home ground with Gilbert & Sullivan’s nautical favourite - HMS Pinafore - the pair’s
irst major success. Pinafore gently pokes fun at the British class system in a tale of romance and
adventure on the high seas, with a surprising twist in the tale.
Common sailor Ralph Rackstraw has fallen in love with Josephine, the haughty daughter of the
gentlemanly Captain. However her father has arranged for Josephine to marry the First Lord of
the Admiralty, Sir Joseph Porter. Can Josephine escape Sir Joseph’s unwelcome attentions? Will
she overcome her natural snobbery to return Ralph’s love? All will be revealed - in the end!
The opera boasts some of Sullivan’s most memorable melodies including “I’m called little
Buttercup”, “Never mind the why and wherefore”, “Let’s give three cheers” and the patriotic
“For he is an Englishman”. Bath G&S presents 4 concert performances, including a Saturday
matinée at 2.30pm.

“There’s a thing called a close-up. The camera advances and you stand still and your head,
your face, is caught in the frame of the picture with a light blazing on it and all your terrible
history screams while you smile.”
Sweet Bird of Youth is an exploration of lost youth, beauty and dreams. Chance Wayne, failed,
one-time heart throb returns to his home in an attempt to regain the love of his life: Heavenly.
On his travels Chance has picked up fading movie star: Alexandra del Lago. Befuddled by drugs
and alcohol, Alexandra is easy prey to Chance’s gigolo charms. Boss Finlay, Heavenly’s father, is
incensed that Chance is back in town and vows to wreak a terrible retribution on the man who he
believes ruined his daughter’s life.
Next Stage Theatre Company has been acclaimed for its memorable productions of other Tennessee
Williams classics, now Richard Matthews as Chance and Kay Francksen as Alexandra del Lago head
a stellar Next Stage cast to bring to Bath audiences this powerful and disturbing tale of failed
dreams, thwarted love and the dark side of the American dream.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see one of the 20th Century’s greatest plays.
