Ivy and Joan by James Hogan at the Jermyn Street 2014

The Jermyn Street Theatre in central London will present two plays Ivy & Joan by James Hogan from 6 January to 24 January 2015, with an official opening on 8 January 2015.

To celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary of the venue, this double bill explores the lives of two separate women as they enter into a new chapter as the world is changing around them and they cling hopelessly onto long held dreams that are being left behind.

The production will star Lynne Miller and Jack Klaff and is directed by Anthony Biggs, with designs by Victoria Johnstone, lighting design by Charlie Lucas and sound design by Gareth McLeod.

Playwright James Hogan's work has been performed at various London fringe venues including the Gate Theatre, the Cockpit, The Old Red Lion, and the King's Head. He founded Oberon Books in 1986 championing plays by unknown writers, publishing them in high quality editions, a policy which Oberon maintains to this day.
