Middle Ground Theatre Company proudly presents the World Première stage adaptation of Ellis Peters’ famous medieval sleuth Cadfael - The Virgin In The Ice at the New Theatre from Tuesday 14 – Saturday 18 May. Featuring a star cast, film projections, lavish settings and bespoke music, this stunning new production celebrates Middle Ground’s 25th anniversary, and the centenary of Ellis Peters’ birth. It is winter 1139 and raging civil war has sent many refugees fleeing north from Worcester, among them an orphaned boy, his beautiful 17 year old sister, and a young nun. But they seem to have disappeared somewhere in the wild winter landscape of frost and snow – and Brother Cadfael embarks on a dangerous quest to find them. The search will lead him to discover a chilling and terrible murder, and a tale of passion gone astray. Ellis Peters’ Cadfael novels have sold millions of copies globally and spawned a hugely successful television series starring Derek Jacobi as Brother Cadfael. Veteran actor Gareth Thomas, twice BAFTA nominated in a career which spans 50 years and includes the title role in the cult classic sci-fi series Blake’s 7, leads a quality cast of fifteen. Joining Gareth are Richard Walsh (London’s Burning), James Palmer (River City) and Rupert Baker (London’s Burning). Cadfael – The Virgin in the Ice is at the New Theatre from Tuesday 14 – Saturday 18 May. Tickets are on sale now with prices from £8.50 to £28.00.
