The Everyman has revealed its new season of ‘Made in Liverpool’ productions which are heading for the Hope Street stage over the next 12 months.

Nick Payne’s Constellations will be performed at the theatre from April 17 to May 8.

When Marianne and Roland meet, everything feels possible. But though there are infinite paths their story could follow, is the ending impossible to escape?

A unique and electrifying story that has delighted audiences worldwide, Payne’s award-winning play is described as a “head-spinning dive into the mysteries of love in a world where choices can always be different, and many potential futures might exist.”

The production will be directed by Yusra Warsama.

Meanwhile Liverpool writer Sean McLoughlin’s Daffodils, which runs from June 3-12, is a turbulent story that examines family, neglect, and professional ambition, and asks whether a teacher can care too much, and whether the right thing might also be terribly wrong.

Known as ‘James’ to his family and ‘Sir’ to his students, Mr Stephens is the kind of English teacher who thinks knowledge is “gorgeous”. And with a passion for his subject and fire in his heart, he hopes that one day the kids he teaches will learn to love it too.

But not every student makes his job easy, and some are near impossible to reach. Demi Lyons is a kid who other teachers call trouble, and when she joins James’s Year 10 GCSE group, he prepares himself for struggles ahead.

What he doesn’t yet know is how far this job, and his life, are going to push him – or whether he’ll survive with his career, health or reputation intact.

The production will be directed by Everyman and Playhouse creative director Nathan Powell.

Then from September 25 to October 16, Olivier Award-winning writer Chris Bush brings Medea, a fiery new version of the Euripides classic, to Liverpool.

A funny and furious clash between one of the greatest Greek tragedies and the modern world’s unblinking gaze, the Everyman’s Medea promises to be “an urgent dissection of female rage and celebrity fixation”.

Elin Schofield directs.

They join the previously announced A Skull in Connemara which opens the Made in Liverpool season from February 20 to March 13.

Martin McDonough’s ‘fearsomely funny’ black comedy will be directed by Chris Sonnex.

In addition, there is also a Made in Liverpool show announced from Young Everyman Playhouse (YEP).

Abi Zakarian’s Age is Revolting, at the theatre on July 9 and 10, will be performed by young actors aged 14 to 17.

When a group of school kids rebel against their boring music lesson, they hit the wrong note and magically transform into their 80-year-old selves… and now live in a care home.

Suddenly, age, and their understanding of it, feels very relevant as they begin to confusedly navigate their way back to the present; no longer older, but maybe just a little wiser.
