ACTORS at Oldbury Rep will be bringing Ronald Harwood’s Equally Divided to life as their first production of the new season.
Two sisters, downtrodden Edith and glamorous Renata reunite after their mother’s death at her bizarre house made of old railway carriages, and learn from the local solicitor that her estate is to be divided equally between them.
This seems fair, but Edith is poor and Renata is rich and Edith has also been her mother’s carer, while Renata has merely been her daughter.
The issue of family inheritance is at the heart of Ronald Harwood’s four-hander, first performed in 1998.
Tickets, priced at £10 for adults, £9 concessions, and £8 on Monday and Tuesday evenings, are available in person at the box office, by calling 0121 552 2761, or online at www.oldburyrep.org.
The production runs from Saturday, September 9, until Saturday, September 16, with performances starting at 7.30pm.
