Pint of Wine Theatre Announces 2019 Season

Pint of Wine Theatre Company, an innovative theatre company providing opportunities for artists, technicians and practitioners to challenge the conventions on how theatre should be presented, is excited to announce its full 2019 season: the UK premiere of Michael John LaChiusa’s Queen of the Mist in April at the Jack Studio Theatre, a full production of the iconic Mame in December at the Cockpit Theatre, a new song and dance production with multi-disciplinary artist Lemington Ridley in the Autumn and a four night cabaret festival in June at the Bussey Building.

Blake Klein, Creative Producer of Pint of Wine, says: “This season will feature new works, rarely-staged classics and fresh looks at great storytelling. We will continue to challenge what is understood of and expected from the London fringe theatre scene and Pint of Wine is incredibly excited for the year ahead.”

Pint of Wine has also named their charity of the year as London Bubble Theatre Company, which it will support in various initiatives throughout the year. Klein says: “London Bubble Theatre Company’s work in supporting theatre makers of all ages though a wide range of programming goes to the heart of what we seek to do at Pint of Wine, and we look forward to partnering with them on various projects throughout 2019.” Proceeds of the 19 April performance of Queen of the Mist will be donated to support the Bubble’s Creative Enders Programme.

Formed in 2018, Pint of Wine is an innovative theatre company with a plan: they look to challenge, disrupt, engage, surprise and grow. Pint of Wine provides opportunities for artists, technicians and practitioners to push the limits on how theatre, dance, and cabaret should be done. They seek to challenge the conventions on how theatre should be presented and look to be disruptive in what is understood of and expected from the London fringe theatre scene. They look to be creative in their choice of source material, and to question how and where works are to be presented, always examining how to best engage with a modern audience.
