Reunion (radio), Revolution (doc), Travesties transfer talks

[jobrodie]

Gosh it's a fun time to be a fan of Tom Hollander! Lots going on. I assume it's also quite a fun time to BE Tom Hollander, I certainly hope so :-)

Thanks to Ale Smallbone for highlighting some of these.

Reunion
There's a 15m short story by Peter Bradshaw (film reviewer for the Guardian) called Reunion and Tom is reading it, next Friday 21st at 3.45pm on BBC Radio 4. Peter tweeted about it and there was a rather nice response from the person who directed Tom in Cambridge Spies :-)

Revolution
This is a documentary with several people portraying Russian artists; Tom is Kazimir Malevich (voice only). It's having its UK / Ireland premiere on Thursday 10th November and there's a Q&A screening with the director, Margy Kinmonth, at the Curzon Mayfair, from £17.50, more at www.curzoncinemas.com/Booking/mayfair/3532489, other screenings' info at www.curzoncinemas.com/mayfair/film-info/revolution-new-art-for-a-new-world

Travesties
Baz Bamigboye (theatre critic) reports on Tom Stoppard having discussions to transfer the play to London's West End early next year and possibly even Broadway next Autumn.

The run at the Menier Chocolate Theatre continues to be solidly sold out and reviewers have absolutely loved it - I get to see it again next week, hooray. Someone has collected together a bunch of these lovely reviews, here fullstoppard.wordpress.com/2016/10/13/press-about-travesties-in-menier-chocolate-factory-hint-tom-hollander-rocks/

I've updated the career section of Tom's Wikipedia page, so that there's a slightly more logical structure, and added some of the new bits mentioned here. With Wikipedia it's always possible that someone will come along and revert all one's changes but hopefully not!

This is wonderful... I'm certainly having fun
And how great you get to see it again , keep us updated

This is all fantastic news, Jo! I'm so happy for you to be able to see the play again! I'll definitely go to the show if it does come to Broadway 🎭🛎 I seriously hope this happens - what a major career bloom Tom has been having. All well deserved and he's worked so hard! 👏👏👏👏

I will be on cloud 9 if this Broadway move happens!

Great job on his Wikipedia page, Jo😀

Jo,
Let us know how your second show goes and don't be shy about trying to meet him and get photo this time

Reunion was worth the wait. Excellent piece of writing and perfectly read by Tom Hollander. I imagine that he is one of the first voice talents to be offered work like this.
