SUMMARY:Akenfield
DESCRIPTION:SHAKE is delighted to announce the famous Suffolk-based sculptor LAURENCE EDWARDS has\njoined the creative team for the new stage production of AKENFIELD.\n“I’m intrigued to work within a stage set\, designing all the elements.

The new play has been written by Glenn Wilhide\, who lives in Suffolk full time\nand is best known for producing the first series of The Royle Family with Caroline Aherne\, among\nother TV and film credits.\n“Writing a play for Suffolk people to perform\, based on Ronald Blythe’s superb writing\, has been\nan exciting project.”\nTaking its lead from the 1975 film which was performed by non-professional local people\, and\nechoing the book itself with its 49 testimonies by local people\, the stage play of Akenfield is being\ncast authentically from within the Suffolk community.\nTraditional and original music for the production is being composed by the young local Folk\nmusician Finn Collinson\, who will be playing live on stage with other musicians during\nperformances.\nProduced by Jenny Hall and Liz Cook via the Benhall-based theatre company SHAKE Festival\, and\ndirected by Jenny Hall\, the new play will initially be performed as 9 previews in Framlingham\,\nHalesworth\, Ipswich\, Stowmarket and Saxmundham.
