Jermyn Street Theatre Announces Outsiders Season

Jermyn Street Theatre has announced details of its Spring 2022 season. The Outsiders Season, which runs from mid-January to early July, and featuring the world premiere of Howard Brenton's Cancelling Socrates and Sarah Ruhl's adapation of Virginia Woolf's Orlando.

The season opens with Stephen Dolginoff’s Thrill Me: The Leopold and Loeb Story, followed by Crystal Skillman’s Rain and Zoe Save The World and The Marriage of Alice B. Toklas by Gertrude Stein, written and directed by Edward Einhorn. 

During the Outsiders season Jermyn Street Theatre will also be presenting a series of Sunday events. One Night Only! features a range of performances, from Penelope Wilton and Chekhov, to evenings of brand new poetry.

I'm also excited to be launching our JST Conversations series, curated by our Carne Deputy Director, Ebenezer Bamgboye.
