Artspod Interview with Nathaniel Parker
January 2025
We caught up with Nathaniel Parker about his shows SUMMER 1954 – a double bill of Terence Rattigan plays. Table No 7 and The Browning Version are being performed together for the first time.
Terence Rattigan’s one act masterpieces Table Number Seven (from Separate Tables) and The Browning Version are paired for the first time, capturing one quietly momentous evening seventy years ago. Together, they confirm Rattigan as one of the great 20th century chroniclers of the paradoxes of the human heart. Directed by Olivier and UK Theatre Award winner James Dacre(Four Quartets, The Two Popes and Blue/Orange), an ensemble cast will perform both plays, led by Olivier Award winner Nathaniel Parker and BAFTA winner Dame Siân Phillips.
