In a remote village in Eastern Europe, around 1900, the young Motl Mendl is entranced by the flickering silent images on his father’s cinematograph. Bankrolled by Jacob, the ebullient local timber merchant, and inspired by Anna, the girl sent to help him make moving pictures of their village, he stumbles on a revolutionary way of story telling. Forty years on, Motl – now a famed American film director – looks back on his early life and confronts the cost of fulfilling his dreams. Following Vincent in Brixton and The Reporter, Nicholas Wright’s new play Traveling Light www.glynnhouse.com/calendar/#february_2012_1 is a funny and fascinating tribute to the Eastern European immigrants who became major players in Hollywood’s golden age. Spend the evening at the romantic Glynn House and experience elegant surroundings, delicious food and uncompromising service.
