Kurt & Sid – a Play by Roy Smiles

Kurt & Sid Poster

This autumn, two of this generation’s brightest acting talents play two of music’s most famous figures in Roy Smiles’ new play KURT & SID (9 September 2009 – 3 October 2009).

Danny Dyer (whose work encompasses roles in multiple Pinter plays, TV’s Skins and films such as Doghouse, Straightheads, The Football Factory and Adulthood) plays Sex Pistol’s bassist Sid Vicious. Opposite him, Shaun Evans (Teachers and recently seen in Sky1’s The Take) makes his West End stage debut as Nirvana’s lead singer Kurt Cobain.

Weary of being hailed as ‘Grunge King’, Kurt is about to pull the trigger of the gun in his hand and join the leagues of rock star deaths down the ages. Then, without invitation, he finds he has company…curious company in the form of a shadowy figure purporting to be the Sex Pistol’s Sid Vicious, Kurt’s hero.
