A HYPOTHETICAL meeting between Vincent van Gogh and John Lennon forms the basis of a play which is touring to Stroud.
When Vincent Met John is being staged at the Lansdown Hall on Sunday, March 15, with performances at 2pm and 7pm.
It explores a meeting of artistic minds, imagining what might have unfolded had Vincent van Gogh and John Lennon crossed paths at a pivotal moment in their lives.
Five years before their deaths both men went through profound change.
Vincent van Gogh finally renounced his religious ambitions and began to paint in earnest and created his life’s great masterworks.
John Lennon renounced sex, drugs and rock and roll and began five years of seclusion in a family unit with Yoko Ono and his second son Sean, and created what would be his last album.
This play takes place at their exact moment of crisis and decision.
Everyman Theatre Cheltenham, Worcester Theatres, and Malvernbard have combined to deliver this thought-provoking show.
Tickets can be booked via the Lansdown Hall website.
