Clonter's New Web Site

 


OUR NEW WEBSITE IS HERE!

We are delighted to announce that we are revamping our website, and we very much hope you think it looks fresher, and that you will find it easier to navigate and book tickets.


It is a work in progress, and will take some time to complete.  You may notice it reverts back to our old format on certain pages whilst we develop the site, so please bear with us.  


In the meantime, we would love your feedback, and if you experience any difficulties when booking tickets during this transition please call the Box Office on 01260 224 514.


Here is a bit of a peep.  Or take a look at www.clonter.org

Clonter is 50 this year! Whilst we have a full programme lined up, there are still a few events that need some funding, and there is also the ongoing need for funding generally to continue to provide a nurturing and supportive place for emerging talent to flourish and entertain our audiences for generations to come.

Murder On The Orient Express - Review by Natalie Anglesey at The Lowry

MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS AT THE LOWRY UNTIL SATURDAY 14TH SEPTEMBER 2024 Hands up if, like me, you are an Agatha Christie fan. Thought so!   The excellent Fiery Angel production company with director Lucy Bailey, knew they were onto a sure - fire winner with this touring production of one of Christie’s most popular novels. This is where I have to confess that in my past I have been a guest on the real Orient Express replicating that same journey. In a strange way that experience has made me more critical of staged productions although I always intend to keep an open mind.   Launching this national tour at The Lowry ensured a packed auditorium. However, it’s crucial that the initial opening scene sets the right atmosphere of winter in 1934 when an avalanche stops the Orient Express dead in its tracks.  Much of the success of the opening scenes is due to an imaginative train set designed by Mike Britton which hopefully, as the tour progresses, will see the set ...

PRIDE & PREJUDICE* (*SORT OF) LOWRY, SALFORD - REVIEW BY NATALIE ANGLESEY

Pride & Prejudice* (*sort of)   By Isobel McArthur after Jane Austen  Lowry, Salford until Saturday Jane Austen may well have swooned at the very thought of anyone tampering with her beloved Pride and Prejudice. So plaudits go to Isobel McArthur for being brave enough to meddle with what is considered to be a literary classic. Arriving at Lowry in Salford after its triumphant run in the West End where it won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy, this production may shock an audience unprepared for so many radical changes.  Although this production is still about the themes of money, true love and avarice, yet far from following in Austen’s footsteps, this show is more a musical than a straight play. For example, the all female cast perform a string of pop classics including Young Hearts Run Free, Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow and You’re So Vain - much to the delight of the audience.  The hard – working ensemble work their literary socks off in a multi...

DEAR ENGLAND AT THE LOWRY, SALFORD - REVIEW BY NATALIE ANGLESEY

Dear England at The Lowry, Salford Until   29 June 2025 Review by Natalie Anglesey Wow! That was my initial reaction on leaving the Lowry after seeing this stunning new touring production of James Graham’s Olivier Award-winning play, Dear England, which packed out the Lowry in Salford. This highly anticipated staging of the National Theatre’s smash-hit production has a four-week run in Salford until 29 June.   Written by award-winning playwright James Graham (Punch, Young Vic; Sherwood, BBC One) and directed by the Almeida Theatre’s Artistic Director Rupert Goold (Patriots, Ink; Almeida Theatre/West End/Broadway), it’s a stark look behind the scenes at football politics.  Dear England tells the uplifting, at times heartbreaking, and ultimately inspiring story of Gareth Southgate’s revolutionary tenure as England manager in this gripping examination of a nation and its game. This production, which won ‘Best New Play’ at the 2024 Olivier Awards, has been updated foll...
