Vanya
Dive into Anton Chekhov’s timeless and dramatic play Vanya, reimagined as a one-man adaptation that provides a modern touch and breathes life into a classic story.
The story of Vanya takes place on a rural estate where family tensions and unfulfilled dreams collide. Uncle Vanya and his niece Sonya struggle with the return of Sonya's father and his captivating young wife, Yelena.
Andrew Scott plays Vanya and provides a nuanced performance that draws you into the complexities of family, unrequited love, and personal disillusionment, allowing you to experience Chekhov’s world.
Angels in America
Tony Kushner’s Angels in America play is a landmark piece of theatre, and the National Theatre’s production brings it to life. This groundbreaking drama explores the intersecting lives of diverse characters during the AIDS crisis in 1980s America, grappling with themes of identity, mortality, and redemption.
The Angels in America cast, including Andrew Garfield, provide stellar performances that bring audiences closer to the raw emotion and complex themes that have made this play one of the most significant works in modern theatre.
