    Sedona News – The National Theatre of London continues its season with its acclaimed new production of “The Motive and the Cue” showing in Sedona on Sunday and Wednesday, June 2 and 5. The Sedona International Film Festival hosts the big screen premiere at its Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.

    Sam Mendes directs Mark Gatiss as John Gielgud and Johnny Flynn as Richard Burton in the fierce and funny new play “The Motive and the Cue”.

    1964: Richard Burton, newly married to Elizabeth Taylor, is to play the title role in an experimental new Broadway production of Hamlet under John Gielgud’s exacting direction. But as rehearsals progress, two ages of theatre collide and the collaboration between actor and director soon threatens to unravel.
