Win a VIP package to see Red Velvet

Garrick Theatre, Charing Cross Road, London, WC2

The first season of the Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company continues with Red Velvet.

Theatre Royal, Covent Garden, 1833. Edmund Kean, the greatest actor of his generation, has collapsed on stage whilst playing Othello. A young black American actor has been asked to take over the role. But as the public riot in the streets over the abolition of slavery, how will the cast, critics and audience react to the revolution taking place in the theatre?

This multi-award winning play - based on the true story of Ira Aldridge by Lolita Chakrabarti, will be the third production in the Plays at the Garrick Season and will be directed by Indhu Rubasingham. Olivier-Award winner Adrian Lester will reprise his role as Ira Aldridge.

We are offering readers the chance to win a Red Velvet VIP package for two, including tickets, interval drinks, programmes, and an overnight stay and two course meal at the five-star Haymarket Hotel.
