Rupert Everett and Julian Wadham star in A Voyage Around my Father at Chichester Festival Theatre.
BAFTA and Golden Globe nominee Rupert Everett stars in John Mortimer's celebrated autobiographical play. Growing up in the shadow of a brilliant and eccentric barrister, the son continually yearns for his father's love and respect. In shining a light on this delicate relationship between a young man and his father who adored his garden and hated visitors, and whose blindness was never mentioned, A Voyage Round My Father introduces us to a gallery of unforgettable and often hilarious characters.
John Mortimer was a novelist, playwright and a barrister in his own right, renowned as creator of Rumpole of The Bailey. Rupert Everett returns to Chichester following his acclaimed performance as Salieri in Amadeus (Festival 2014). Julian Wadham's screen appearances include The Madness of King George, The English Patient and Downton Abbey. The director is Richard Eyre (4000 Miles).
