The UK and Ireland Tour of Stephen Daldry’s seminal production of JB Priestley’s classic thriller An Inspector Calls will be on stage at Malvern Theatres from Tuesday, November 5 to Saturday, November 9.
Since 1992, Daldry’s production of An Inspector Calls has won a total of 19 major awards including four Tony Awards and three Olivier Awards. It has played to more than four million theatregoers worldwide and is the most internationally lauded production in the National Theatre’s history.
Written at the end of the Second World War and set before the First, An Inspector Calls is a compelling and haunting thriller, which begins when the mysterious Inspector Goole calls unexpectedly on the prosperous Birling family home, shattering their peaceful family dinner party with his investigations into the death of a young woman.
JB Priestley’s brilliantly constructed masterpiece powerfully dramatises the dangers of casual capitalism’s cruelty, complacency and hypocrisy.
An Inspector Calls is directed by the world-renowned theatre and film director Stephen Daldry, whose many theatre credits include The Audience, Skylight and Billy Elliot The Musical. His film credits include The Hours, The Reader and Billy Elliot, all of which earned him Academy Award nominations for Best Director. Most recently he has directed several episodes of the Netflix smash hit series The Crown, for which he is also producer.
