Coincidences...

Having just mentioned Corin Redgrave will be returning to the Octagon soon it brought something to mind that was once of those weird coincidences.

We had a Comms Away Day yesterday to do some planning, look at the needs to the department and our job roles etc but we decided to take it away from the office. We went to the Lowry for the afternoon. Currently, at the Lowry as well the The Sea: LS Lowry and Maggi Hambling (an exhibition of Lowry's work that focuses on the sea as well as other artists watery images) there is also an exhibition of famous faces, mainly in theatre roles taken on the last half-hour before curtain up which were quite lovely, intimate and interesting.

Anyhoo (this does have a point I swear) during a break from all that planning, we had a mooch around the exhibition and played 'Guess the Famous Face'. A little theatre-related visual quiz if you will. On our way round, I am ashamed to say I came undone on a very famous face. I knew the face and I just couldn't think of the name.....the actor? It was none other than Vanessa Redgrave and funnily enough it was a photo of her in a production of Ghosts from the Young Vic, directed by none other than our very own David Thacker! So if you want to see Corin's sister as well as a whole other host of famous faces in varying guises then mooch over to the Lowry. If you want to see a Redgrave in the flesh come and see Corin in Trumbo here in our Studio.....
