SUMMARY:The Lady from the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Why book? Written and directed by Simon Stone (Yerma\, Phaedra)\, starring Oscar winner Alicia Vikander (The Danish Girl\, Ex Machina)\, and marking the return of Andrew Lincoln (Love Actually\, The Walking Dead) to the London stage. \nThis adaptation of Ibsen’s The Lady from the Sea is a thrilling dissection of desire\, loss and rebirth for the contemporary age. \nFearful she may have settled too easily for a comfortable life\, married to a well-off doctor\, Ellida searches for a way to break the predictable routine her existence has become. When a lover from her past appears at their remote country house\, she has to choose between the life she has now built and the one she left long ago.

SUMMARY:Clarkson
DESCRIPTION:Why book? Written by critically acclaimed Samuel D Hunter (The Whale)\, we loved Sophie Melville in Iphegenia in Splot. Joe Locke (Heartstopper) will be making a W.E debut. Directed by NY based Jack Serio who is an award-winning director\, known for his essentialist approach to directing\, stripping productions down to their core elements. \n“On a journey West to rediscover himself\, Jake unexpectedly meets Chris – a kindred soul hiding in a night shift at a Costco in a rural American town. As their bond deepens\, so does their sense of adventure. Maybe they could finally give life new meaning by chasing something more – like the intrepid explorers Lewis and Clark before them. \nCLARKSTON is a modern frontier story that blazes a trail through friendship\, acceptance\, love and the hope of new discoveries.”

SUMMARY:The Producers
DESCRIPTION:We saw this production at the Menier in Jan 25 and loved it. We hope it will be just as much fun in a bigger space. For those who missed it! \nCritically acclaimed principals Marc Antolin\, Trevor Ashley\, Raj Ghatak\, Andy Nyman\, Harry Morrison and Joanna Woodward all return triumphantly for the West End production. \nThe first major London revival of Mel Brooks’ musical adaptation of THE PRODUCERS : based on the classic cult film\, the original Broadway production won a record twelve Tony Awards\, and skewers Broadway traditions\, taking no prisoners as it proudly proclaims itself an “equal opportunity offender!”. \nDown-on-his-luck Broadway producer Max Bialystock schemes with timid accountant Leo Bloom to create the biggest flop in theatre history – only to have it backfire spectacularly\, and with thunderous applause. \n

A phenomenal stage actress who will be on stage with her daughter Bessie Carter. \nDirected by Dominic Cooke (Clybourne Park at the Royal Court\, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and Follies at the NT): \n“This famously controversial play was banned after publication by the Lord Chamberlain\, and promises an evening of classic entertainment from the playwright behind Pygmalion and Man and Superman. The show follows modern-minded young woman Vivie Warren\, who wants to become a lawyer. But her future is upended by the arrival of her estranged mother\, who has a batch of suitors in tow! Soon\, revelations about the source of Mrs Warren’s wealth – and the money that afforded Vivie so much opportunity – are aired\, but can Vivie begin to understand what her mother sacrificed to secure her family’s future?”

DESCRIPTION:Why book?  Experience new work written by leading play-writing duo Robert Khan and Tom Slinky who wrote Brexit\, which enjoyed 2 sell0out runs. \n“In 1976\, Harold Wilson announces his shock resignation as Prime Minister\, and the Labour government has a sudden power vacuum.  Feuding cabinet giants – Roy Jenkins\, Denis Healey and Tony Crosland – meet to discuss who should succeed him.  Ostensibly friends\, contemporaries at Oxford and embarking on their historic quest to make the Labour Party Britains natural party of government\, The Gang of Three tells the story of how their fractured friendships and bitter rivalries came to destroy their mutual goal\, instead of ushering in eighteen years of Tory rule.”

SUMMARY:Kyoto
DESCRIPTION:SAVING THE EARTH IS A FILTHY BUSINESS​ \nKyoto\, the ‘truly remarkable’ (WhatsOnStage) new political thriller transfers to London’s West End in 2025. Brought to you by the Royal Shakespeare Company and Good Chance\, fresh from a critically acclaimed run in Stratford-upon-Avon\, is a ‘tense and gripping’ (Guardian) show. \nWelcome to the Kyoto Conference Centre\, 11 December 1997.

SUMMARY:Pina Bausch/ Germaine Acogny & Malou Airaudo
DESCRIPTION:From the Sadler’s Website:\nPina Bausch/ Germaine Acogny & Malou AiraudoThe Rite of Spring / common ground[s]\nSell-out runs\, an international tour and five-star reviews herald the return of this iconic double bill. \n\nThe idea of ‘exchange’ is central in this two-part programme which marks the first collaboration between the Pina Bausch Foundation (Germany)\, École des Sables (Senegal) and Sadler’s Wells (UK). \nBausch’s (1975) The Rite of Spring is danced by a newly assembled company of dancers from African countries. In this pioneering work\, with music by Stravinsky\, a ‘chosen one’ is sacrificed changing the season from winter to spring. \ncommon ground[s] is a new work created\, performed and inspired by the lives of two remarkable women: Germaine Acogny\, “the mother of contemporary African dance” and founder of École des Sables and Malou Airaudo who joined Bausch in the early days of Tanztheater Wuppertal and later was a professor and director at Folkwang University. This poetic and tender piece\, the duo’s first collaboration\, examines their shared histories and emotional experiences. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Tachwedd
DESCRIPTION:Four people. 2000 years. The feeling of being hunted. \nWhy book?  Support the amazing creative team at Theatre 503 who champion new and under-represented voices.  Tachwedd features an entirely Welsh cast in the play’s London premier\, in an aim to prove the “real wealth of talent” in Wales. Meet for a chat with the author at 6:45pm. \nJoin us at 6:45pm for a chat with the author of the play! \nSet in Bethesda\, North Wales\, Tachwedd weaves a powerful narrative of mythology\, history\, and survival across four distinct eras: 1742\, 1902\, 1975\, and the present day. Performed by a stellar Welsh cast\, this play explores the weight of inheritance\, the legacy of exploitation\, and the haunted land we leave behind. \nIn the same square mile\, four individuals across centuries grapple with their ties to place—whether through loyalty\, fear\, or the painful choice to escape. From royal hunts and religious fervour to a town ravaged by industrial decline\, each era reveals how land and identity are inextricably linked. The land they once called home becomes a battleground for survival\, burdened by violence and the choices of their ancestors. \nAs Bethesda reels from mass layoffs and the ground beneath them fractures\, Tachwedd asks what it means to possess land—and what happens when that land no longer feels like yours. As four generations reel from decisions across time\, Tachwedd becomes a story of survival\, of losing and reclaiming the place that defines you. Join us for an unforgettable journey into a fractured landscape where past and present collide\, and legacies endure. \n

SUMMARY:Giselle
DESCRIPTION:The iconic ballet\, reimagined. \n\nFollowing acclaimed performances around the world\, and sold-out shows in Manchester and Bristol in 2023\, Akram Khan’s Giselle returns to Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London for the first time in five years. \nAs the curtain rises\, dancers in shadow push against a forbidding wall. From that moment on\, this ground-breaking production stuns with powerful images. \nMesmerising choreography\, atmospheric lighting by Mark Henderson and a towering set by Academy Award-winner Tim Yip conjure up a condemned factory and the vengeful ghosts that appear in its shadows. \nThe ominous score by Vincenzo Lamagna – adapted from the original by Adolphe Adam and performed live by English National Ballet Philharmonic – intensifies the story’s emotional impact. \nSee the greatest romantic ballet and its story of love\, betrayal\, and redemption\, boldly reimagined. \nEmail us if you would like tickets.

SUMMARY:Nachtland
DESCRIPTION:Do you want this hanging over your kitchen table to remind you of your Daddy? \nModern day Germany.  Nicola and Phillipp argue as they clear out their late father’s house.  When they find an old painting stashed in the attic\, things get savage. \nThe painting is a quaint street scene from 1920s Vienna; the work of a failed artist who abandoned his original vocation for Nazism.  Nicola wants to sell it.  Phillipp wants to keep it.  Phillip’s wife Judith wants to burn it. \nNachtland* is a mordant satire about marriage\, legacy\, the rise of the new right\, and the terrible impulses buried deep.  The UK premiere is directed by 2023 Tony Award-winner Patrick Marber (Leopoldstadt).  Marius von Mayenburg is one of Germany’s foremost playwrights.  His plays include Fireface\, Plastic and The Ugly One. \n*Nachtland is an invented German word.  It suggests a place of eternal darkness..
