The world premiere stage adaptation of the Oscar winning film is now in performances at the Harold Pinter Theatre.
Production images have now been released for Thea Sharrock’s (The Bodyguard, Equus, After the Dance) production of High Noon, adapted for the stage by Academy Award-winner and six-time nominee Eric Roth from the four time Oscar winning film directed by Fred Zinnemann.
Set in the American West of the 1800s, High Noon rides on themes as relevant now as they were then. Courage vs. Cowardice. Justice vs. Peace. Duty vs. Desire. And at its heart, is the bond between Will Kane and Amy Fowler – a love tested by impossible choices as the clock ticks down to the return of deadly outlaw Frank Miller on the high noon train. The clock is ticking. Tick: Begin a new life together? Tock: Or take a stand for the greater good? As time runs out, one truth remains: if you don’t stand up for what’s worth saving, you risk losing it all.
The cast for the production is led by Emmy and Tony Award-winner Billy Crudup as Will Kane and Olivier Award-winner Denise Gough as Amy Fowler. They are joined by Billy Howle, Rosa Salazar, Simon Chandler, James Doherty, Misha Handley, Joshua Hill, Jonah Russell, Rebecca Lee and Tim Steed.
Meanwhile, the creative team includes: set and costume design by Tony and Olivier Award-winner Tim Hatley (Life of Pi, Back to the Future The Musical), lighting design by Tony and Olivier Award-winner Neil Austin (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Born with Teeth), music by Chris Egan and sound design by Nick Lidster. The choreographer and movement director is Lizzie Gee, the fight director is Kate Waters, the casting director is Jina Jay CDG and the general managers are Short Street Productions Ltd. The executive producer is Mark Rubinstein.
