Your best source for Matt Lewis news
Matthew was a guest on this morning’s episode of Soccer AM and a video is now available online and may be watched via this link. Once the video is embeddable we will post it here.
In the interview he talks about the play, how they had a member of the army come in to yell at them at rehearsals and a game called Beer Hunter, which you can now play on the Our Boys Facebook.
Today we have some photos from the Opening Night for Our Boys. There are photos of Matt and the cast at the after party as well as during the performance. View them all in the gallery.
The Bromley Times have posted a preview of Matthew’s new play Our Boys which has it’s opening night tonight in London at the Duchess Theatre. The preview also included a new photo from the play which can be seen in the gallery.
The play, written by Jonathan Lewis, tells the story of six young soldiers who are passing time as they recover from injuries incurred in the line of duty. Suddenly, their banter and camaraderie is jeopardised, as a dangerous incident and an act of betrayal result in charges of misconduct looming – and as accusations fly, the fighting really starts.
Set in 1980s Britain, Our Boys is as relevant now as it was in 1993, when it won a Best New Play award for its premiere production. This West End revival comes from the creative team behind the international hit Journey’s End.
Matthew Lewis will be on Saturday Kitchen BBC1 tomorrow morning from 10- 11.30am to talk about his new play, Our Boys which began previews this week! Maybe he will be cooking something again, remember when he baked cookies on Blue Peter?
We will post the video as soon as it’s available! Thanks to the Our Boys Facebook for the tip!
UPDATE: Fans in the UK may watch the episode at this link. No embeddable version is available at the moment.
