HomeMr Foote's Other Leg

Some great reviews from the press night of Mr Foote's Other Leg at the Theatre Royal Haymarket this week have been shared online.

Joseph Millson, though much taller than the real-life actor, gives Garrick a measure of the gravitas with which he sought to elevate the social status of the profession as well as friendly bon homie and just a touch of his disdain at the way in which the incorrigible Foote undermines all sense of propriety.

Joseph shared a photo of the Haymarket Theatre this morning, as preparations are underway for the opening of Mr Foote's Other Leg at the Haymarket Theatre on Wednesday 28th October. Tickets are available from here.  The play had wonderful reviews at Hampstead.

It's good to see Russell Beale snarling with vulgarity like a raddled old pole cat as he belittles Joseph Millson's handsome Garrick for his devotion to the Bard and Festival project in "Stretford," or trades affectionate insults and crude gossip with Garrick's doomed lover, Peg Woffington, deliciously played by Dervla Kirwan. What's On Stage

The Hampstead Theatre has finally announced the full cast for Mr Foote's Other Leg, which opens on September 14th. Very few tickets are left, so hurry if you haven't ordered yours yet.

Simon Russell Beale will be joined by Dervla Kirwan, Joseph Millson and Colin Stinton in the riotously funny new play, directed by Richard Eyre. The full cast includes Micah Balfour, Sophie Bleasdale, Joshua Elliott, Jenny Galloway, Ian Kelly and Forbes Masson. Runs on the Main Stage 14 September - 17 October. Limited availability.
