TALKING HEADS
The Bridge Theatre, 3 Potters Fields Park, London SE1 2SG
While the Bridge Theatre was closed during April and May, the staff worked with the BBC to produce Alan Bennett’s landmark Talking Heads monologues which were broadcast on BBC1 in June.
Now, eight of them come to the stage in a series of unique double bills, all of them with the same leading actors whose performances were universally acclaimed on television. Each of the short plays that make up Talking Heads is a perfectly distilled masterpiece, sometimes disturbing, often hilarious and always profoundly humane.
