Karen Gillan to make her theatre debut in October
July 22nd, 2011
Karen Gillan will be making her theatre debut in October!
It’s been confirmed that the actress will be taking to the stage at the Donmar Warehouse in the West End revival of Inadmissible Evidence by John Osborne. She’ll be playing the role of the secretary of a self-destructive lawyer, who will be portrayed by Douglas Hodge.
The play will run from 13th October to 26th November, and you can find out more about it and book tickets here.
We wish Karen the best of luck, although we wonder what this means for Amy Pond…
I really don’t think there’s anything to worry about. Karen will be available to film the Christmas Special for September – October (if Amy and Rory actually have proper roles this time) and will presumably be available to film Series Seven after November, when they’ll probably begin filming Series Seven so all thirteen episodes can air next Autumn and finish before Christmas.
But we still don’t know whether Karen and Arthur are coming back for Series 7 (which is not airing in its entirety in 2012). Also, given what the characters have been through this season, I would be very surprised if they remained beyond the finale.
Oh, I’d love to see that.
On the last day of filming, didn’t Karen say she’d see Arthur and Matt “very soon”? I assume they’re back for series 7, which I’m eternally happy about… if I’m right.
BUT it’s only Matt who’s been confirmed for the next series. We’ve only got the quote @PRB mentioned to say that Amy’s coming back, and she might just have been referring to the Christmas special and no further episodes. Or even to other events like conventions or premieres that they would all be attending.
