David Blakey
David was originally going to design The Lady in the Van. He was only asked to take over directing less than a week before auditions. So, as with The Playboy of the Western World (2015), which David also designed and then directed, he has had a long time to look at it as designer and very little time as director. With Festen last year, David had been thinking about the play for six years before an opportunity came to direct it, so he now seems to alternate between plays with a long lead time and plenty of time to work on them, and those that involve a short period of intense work, thought and planning. With a total change of tone and step away from realism, David will direct Noddy at TheatreWorks Birkenhead in 2019. He has been thinking about that for some months already. |
