Headlong (theatre company)
Headlong is a theatre company noted for reworking plays of the past and commissioning and developing new work.
The company was originally set up in 1974 as The Oxford Stage Company. Previous artistic directors include John Retallack (1989-1999)and Dominic Dromgoole (1999-2005).
When Rupert Goold (2005-2013) took over as artistic director in 2005, the company undertook a major rebrand and was renamed Headlong.
Jeremy Herrin took over the artistic directorship of the company in 2013 and is the current artistic director.
==Work==

''Season 1''
Headlong’s first season (2006-2008), was called ''Reinventing the Epic''. Headlong began with two major revivals: Edward Bond’s ''Restoration'' (with new songs written for the revival by Bond, scored by Adam Cork) and Tony Kushner’s ''Angels in America''. The major production, however, was ''Faustus''. This radical reworking of Christopher Marlowe’s epic was a reimagining, half-Marlowe and half new text (written by Rupert Goold and Ben Power) contrasting Faustus’s story with that of the Chapman Brothers and their rectifying of Goya’s ''The Disasters of War'' etchings by adding clown faces to them.〔Headlong Website, http://headlong.co.uk/history/season-1/〕
''Season 2''
The only revival in Headlong's second season (2008-2009) was Goold’s own production of ''King Lear'', starring Pete Postlethwaite. Headlong moved towards new work, including three new plays commissioned and developed in-house: Richard Bean’s ''The English Game'', Anthony Neilson’s ''Edward Gant’s Amazing Feats of Loneliness'' and, most notably, Lucy Prebble’s ''ENRON''. ''ENRON'' was one of two productions to transfer from this season into the West End. The other was Rupert Goold and Ben Power’s reworking of Luigi Pirandello’s ''Six Characters in Search of an Author'', which reframed Pirandello’s play in a contemporary structure.〔Headlong Website, http://headlong.co.uk/history/season-2/〕
''Season 3''
Headlong’s third season (2009-2011) showcased two further new plays developed in-house: ''Earthquakes in London'' by Mike Bartlett which was produced at the National Theatre and an (unproduced) play about Orson Welles by Anthony Neilson. This was to be complemented by a re-working of ''Gulliver’s Travels''.
Headlong’s major production in 2011 was ''Decade'', an unusual and ambitious multi-authored piece responding to the decennial of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Directed by Goold, it was performed at St. Katharine Dock.〔Headlong Website, http://headlong.co.uk/history/season-3/〕
''Season 4''
Headlong’s fourth season (2012-2014) was announced via a ‘season trailer’ video released online,〔''Falling Headlong'', dir. by Rupert Goold (Headlong, 2012) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNH6ANbLsnA〕 shot by the company itself, rather than a traditional press release.
The season included Lucy Kirkwood's play ''Chimerica'' (directed by Lyndsey Turner), which transferred to the West End in 2013 after an initial run at the Almeida Theatre. The production won several awards including: five Olivier Awards (Best New Play, Best Director, Best Set Design, Best Lighting Design and Best Sound Design); three Critics Circle Awards (Best New Play, Best Director and Best Designer); the Evening Standard Award for Best New Play; the Susan Blackburn Prize; and the National Stage Management Award for Stage Management Team of the Year.
Other new work included ''The Effect'', a major new play by Lucy Prebble (directed by Rupert Goold) developed by Headlong and produced in late 2012 at the National Theatre. ''The Effect'' won the 2012 Critics' Circle Award for Best New Play. Other new work included Ella Hickson's ''Boys''and a musical version of Bret Easton Ellis's ''American Psycho'' with a book by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and music and lyrics by Duncan Sheik.
Revivals included George Orwell's ''1984'' in a new adaptation by Robert Icke and opened at Nottingham Playhouse before embarking on a UK tour in the autumn of 2013. The production transferred to the West in 2014, after a sell-out London run at the Almeida Theatre. The production embarked on a second UK tour during the autumn of 2014 and reopened in the West End in 2015.〔Headlong Website, http://headlong.co.uk/history/season-4/〕
