On the 5th and 6th June, The Lantern Theatre in Liverpool will play host to the second production from Quintus Theatre Company.

From Laurence Olivier Award-winning author, Caryl Churchill, Heart’s Desire sees couple Brian and Alice, along with senile Great Aunt Maisie cope with the monotony of everyday life through an engaging and comedic production.

Whilst waiting for their daughter to arrive home from Australia, the waiting becomes tedious and the audience is treated to watch as the same scene is reset again and again and again…

Quintus Theatre Company’s resident actors, Jessie Harris, Lesley-Staum Lewis (last seen at the Lantern earlier this year as Kate in the acclaimed WINONA) and Nick Wright are all first class graduates from the University of Chester and are looking forward to debut their production at the Lantern along with the help behind the scenes from Production/Stage Manager, Gemma Bamford.

“We’re very excited to be performing Heart’s Desire“, said Lewis. “Liverpool has a rich history of embracing a variety of theatre productions, something we’re all delighted to soon be a part of with this contemporary piece.”

Tickets are on sale now and are available from The Lantern website: www.lanterntheatreliverpool.co.uk or at the Box office: 01517 030 000. Tickets are priced at £7.50 (£5.50 concessions).
