Classic Goodnight Mister Tom is returning to the
Manchester Opera House
THE critically acclaimed stage
version of the much loved family classic Goodnight Mister Tom is returning
to the Opera House, Manchester, as part of its new national tour. The
production enjoyed great success in the West End and on tour in 2012/13,
winning the Olivier Award for Best Entertainment and Family. The novel
Goodnight Mister Tom is now a modern classic and is celebrating its 35th
Anniversary. Michelle Magorian's wonderfully uplifting tale is brought
gloriously to life in this magical stage adaptation by David Wood. Set
during the dangerous build up to the 2nd World War, Goodnight Mister Tom
follows young William Beech, who is evacuated to the idyllic English
countryside and forges a remarkable and heart warming friendship with the
elderly recluse, Tom Oakley. David Troughton, who is currently the voice of
Tony Archer on BBC Radio 4's long-running British contemporary rural drama,
The Archers, takes to the stage as Mister Oakley and is joined by an
ensemble cast featuring Clark Devlin, Elisa de Grey, Guy Lewis, Simon
Markey, Abigail Matthews, Jane Milligan, Martha Seignior, James Staddon,
Melle Stewart, Georgina Sutton and Hollie Taylor. 6 talented young
performers have been cast in the key roles of William and Zach. Joe
Reynolds, Freddy Hawkins and Alex Taylor-McDowall will alternate the role of
William and Sonny Kirby, Harrison Noble and Oliver Loades will alternate as
Zach. Please note the production images feature Alex Taylor McDowall
