The Weir

Brendan Gleeson makes his West End debut Brendan Gleeson (The Banshees of Inisherin, Harry Potter, Paddington 2) stars as Jack in what promises to be a definitive production of the celebrated modern classic. The Oscar, Bafta, Golden Globe-nominated, Emmy-winning Gleeson makes a long-awaited return to the stage in his native Dublin, as well as his much-anticipated West End stage debut. 'And there's no dark like a winter night in the country. And there was a wind like this one tonight, howling and whistling in off the sea. You hear it under the door and it's like someone singing. Singing in under the door at you. It was this type of night now. Am I setting the scene for you?' THE WEIR is the play that brought McPherson (‘one of the finest writers of his generation’ -New York Times) to the world’s attention as a truly great writer, winning the Evening Standard, Critics’ Circle and Olivier awards for Best New Play when it premiered at the Royal Court. The tallest tales reveal the deepest truths. On a stormy night, four local men gather in an isolated pub in rural Ireland. Their usual banter and everyday lives are disrupted by the arrival ofa woman called Valerie. The stories they weave to impress her are gripping, haunting and deeply unsettling. Little do they know that she has a profoundly personal story of her own, the sharing of which will leave them all shaken. THE WEIR is a testament to the need for human connection, the possibility of hope, and the enduring power of storytelling.

The Importance of Being Earnest

Olly Alexander & Stephen Fry star in the West End transfer of Wilde's masterpiece The National Theatre’s sold-out production of The Importance of Being Earnest transfers to the Noël Coward Theatre this Autumn, in a co-production with Sonia Friedman Productions. Directed by Max Webster’s (Donmar’s Macbeth; Life of Pi) this joyful and flamboyant reimagining of Oscar Wilde’s ‘glittering masterpiece’ (Telegraph), is a hilarious story of identity, impersonation and romance. Joining the previously announced Olly Alexander in the role of Algernon Moncrieff will be Nathan Stewart-Jarrett as Jack Worthing, Hugh Dennis as Reverend Canon Chasuble, Shobna Gulati as Miss Prism, Kitty Hawthorne as Gwendolen Fairfax, Jessica Whitehurst as Cecily Cardew, Hayley Carmichael as Merriman/Lane, and Stephen Fry as Lady Bracknell. Being sensible can be excessively boring. At least Jack thinks so. While assuming the role of dutiful guardian in the country, he lets loose in town under a false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy takes on a similar facade. Unfortunately, living a double life has its drawbacks, especially when it comes to love. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate. Limited season begins 18 September.

Born with Teeth

The West End premiere stars Ncuti Gatwa and Edward Bluemel In these dangerous times, who will burn brightest — and who will burn out? Winter 1591. It is a dangerous time for artists: the country is full of conspiracy and paranoia. In the backroom of a pub, writing sensations Kit Marlowe and Will Shakespeare are forced together in a creative union. Alone, with the table as their stage and battlefield, they sharpen their pens – and let their genius fly. Across three secret meetings, the rivals duel and flirt like their lives depend on it – and with spies everywhere, betrayal is so tempting. Marking its West End premiere this summer, Liz Duffy Adams’ Born With Teeth is a thrilling imagining of the relationship between two literary icons at odds with their time. RSC Co-Artistic Director Daniel Evans directs Ncuti Gatwa (Doctor Who, Sex Education) and Edward Bluemel (Killing Eve, My Lady Jane) as the poets who square off in a game of wits, words, and powerplay. Performances begin 13 August for a strictly limited 11-week season at London’s Wyndham’s Theatre.

Written by David Adjmi, directed by Daniel Aukin, and featuring original music by Arcade Fire's Will Butler, Stereophonic invites the audience to immerse themselves — with fly-on-the-wall intimacy — in the powder keg process of a band on the brink of blowing up.

Salome

For mirrors do but show us masks... For the first time at Gesher Theatre, a co-production with the Theatre Royal Haymarket, from the West End. The premiere took place as part of Jaffa Fest 2024. The play is performed in English with subtitles in Russian and Hebrew. Maxim Didenko, one of the leading Russian (in the past), and now European, directors, will make his debut in Israel. Time: first century AD Place: here. "She went out and said to her mother, 'What shall I ask?' And she said, ’The head of John the Baptist!’ Immediately she came with haste to the king and asked, saying, ‘I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.’" (Mark 6:24-25) Who is she, this mysterious Salome, who for centuries captured the hearts and minds of outstanding artists, writers, composers? A little, naive girl who accidentally became history’s plaything? A teenager, protesting the vulgarity and hypocrisy of the world around her? A bloodthirsty seductress with a lust for power? Salome, the Jewish princess, an enigma that spawned an entire tradition in the European artistic culture, continues to thrill and capture the minds of our contemporaries. In a nutshell, the story is simple - King Herod Antipas marries his daughter-in-law Herodias, which is unacceptable in Judaism, and therefore ignited the wrath of John the Baptist. To silence John, Herod throws him into prison. His wife is not satisfied with this and asks him to kill the insolent man. Soon Herodias had a very convenient opportunity. Herod Antipas was celebrating his birthday at the fortress of Macheron. Many guests, “the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee” (Mark 6:21) were invited to the celebration. Salome was among them, she attracted everyone's attention with her appearance and bold manners. Herodias sends her daughter Salome to seduce Herod with "the dance of the seven veils". Herod is ready to fulfill her every request. On her mother's advice, Salome asks for the head of John the Baptist on a silver platter... Oscar Wilde's play, which caused a scandal in the XIX century, has become a worldwide cultural classic. Richard Strauss's opera is still heard around the world and has drawn the attention of outstanding directors from Castellucci to Chernyakov.

Seagull:True Story

The off-Broadway transfers to the UK!

Desperate to save his vision and his livelihood, Kon flees to New York. Torn between his Russian roots and a confounding American paradise, he tries to redefine himself as an artist, only to discover that regaining true freedom takes more than just a few thousand miles… Inspired by true events, this bold and playful theatrical experience, packed full of “comedic mayhem that makes the audience roar” (Stage and Cinema), transfers to London after a hugely successful Off-Broadway run at La Mama. Acclaimed Russian director Alexander Molochnikov leads a stellar cast in a story of love, betrayal, and the struggle to make meaningful art in a world where the truth depends on who’s in charge. ‍

Plied and Prejudice

A bold, boozy twist on the classic Jane Austen tale It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman in Regency England must be in want of a very stiff drink. Direct from a sellout run in Australia, the aussies are back in the motherland to ruin another cultural icon. Plied And Prejudice is a hilarious adaptation of Jane Austen’s classic novel, telling the tale of Elizabeth Bennet and Mister Darcy as you’ve never seen it before. With five actors scrambling to play twenty characters in this chaotic retelling, all notions of respectable theatre (and British etiquette) get thrown out the door! This is Pride And Prejudice as the BBC would never abide. Join us for Mr Darcy’s booziest ball, equal parts performance and party with actors and musicians live on stage. Plied And Prejudice is a comedic cocktail sure to leave you rolling on the floor one way or another. Bring your eligible bachelors, your unmarried daughters, and the lover you’ll settle for if your cousin won’t have you, for an unhinged night of love, lust, and libations. Settle in with a drink (to calm your poor nerves) and get ready for all the highs and lows that Austen has to offer: from awkward proposals and scandalous elopements, to the wettest of wet t-shirt contests. Whether you’re an Austen die-hard, or you’d rather be watching Die Hard, you’re sure to love it—most ardently!

Troilus and Cressida

Shakespeare’s rarely performed, genre-defying satire Two opposing worlds clash in the Globe Theatre this summer, in Shakespeare’s rarely performed, genre-defying satire Troilus and Cressida. The legends of Greece and Troy are gripped by an epic war, fighting for honour and bravery. As a thrilling, action-packed battle rages around them, Trojan prince Troilus falls deeply in love with Cressida, and they swear their eternal love… But wait! That’s NOT the play we’re about to see. Fast forward eight years, and everything has ground to a halt in a seemingly pointless, exhausting conflict with no resolution in sight. The manufactured glamour of war is losing its sheen in Troy, and the Greek camp is an apocalyptic wasteland. What happens when the heroes we worship, and the stories that drive us, can no longer live up to their mythic narratives? In his Globe debut, director Owen Horsley (Twelfth Night, Regent’s Park Open Air) explores the cult of celebrity and the egos that propel wars forward in Shakespeare’s cynical, satirical study of appearance versus reality.

The Pitchfork Disney

A beautiful stranger enters a home locked and protected against the outside world You know why the ghost train is so popular? Because there are no ghosts. Once you’ve learnt that you can make a fortune." Ten years ago something terrible happened to Presley and Haley. Since then they've lived alone in their dead parents’ house, doors bolted against the terrors of the world. But, one night, Presley sees a beautiful stranger on the street outside. And while his sister sleeps… he invites in their worst nightmare. Darkly comic and deeply unsettling, Philip Ridley’s seminal masterpiece single-handedly changed the course of British drama. Its exploration of ‘a climate of fear’, living in ‘alternate worlds’, and persistent thrum of sexual anxiety has continued to act as a tuning fork for the zeitgeist. It is a play whose relevance is forever in the now. Lidless Theatre has a long-standing collaboration with Philip Ridley and is now set to return with a landmark production—his first-ever play, The Pitchfork Disney. One of Ridley’s most celebrated and influential works, this production marks a major moment in their partnership. Fresh from two sell-out, ★★★★★ runs at Park Theatre, including Leaves of Glass, which broke Park90’s box office records, Lidless Theatre continues to champion Ridley’s groundbreaking storytelling on stage.
