We caught up with Composer DJ Walde, Choreographer Kate Prince, Writer Nima Taleghani and Director Indhu Rubasingham to find out how they've brought Euripides’ tragedy to life through rhythm, movement and music.
The Bacchae aren’t standing on the sidelines whilst the men have all the fun. These fangirls are stage-storming powerhouses ready to cause chaos in Thebes.
Whilst the Bacchae maraud in the mountains, their god Dionysos is taking part in his own messed-up family Olympics. He’s here to bring down his cousin King Pentheus. All to prove to the chorus of women that he’s more than just the god of rhyme, wine and a good time.
Bacchae plays in the Oliver Theatre from 13 September

Watch Young Marx on National Theatre at Home.
Rory Kinnear is Marx and Oliver Chris is Engels, in this comedy directed by Nicholas Hytner and reunites the creative team behind the hit comedy One Man, Two Guvnors.
1850, and Europe’s most feared terrorist is hiding in Dean Street, Soho. Broke, restless and horny, the thirty-two-year-old revolutionary is a frothing combination of intellectual brilliance, invective, satiric wit, and child-like emotional illiteracy.
Creditors, spies, rival revolutionary factions and prospective seducers of his beautiful wife all circle like vultures. His writing blocked, his marriage dying, his friend Engels in despair at his wasted genius, his only hope is a job on the railway. But there’s still no one in the capital who can show you a better night on the piss than Karl Heinrich Marx.

Pegeen Flaherty’s life is turned upside down when, on a normal day, a young man walks into her pub claiming that he’s killed his father.

‘Is that what you want? To be an underdog all your life?’
Walker Holt has big dreams for his tailor’s shop, and an even bigger order to complete. Over the course of 24 hours he must work tirelessly to satisfy his new client’s impossible tailoring needs.
But as the night goes on, it’s not just the trouser hems that start to fray as tensions rise and Walker’s friendships and relationships are pushed to their limits. His success comes at a cost, but what price is he willing to pay?
Lynette Linton (Blues for an Alabama Sky, Shifters) directs Michael Abbensetts’ (Sweet Talk, Empire Road) era-defining drama, with additional material by Trish Cooke, in its largest ever staging.

We're looking back at Year 2 of Speak Up, our secondary school programme that aims to encourage new ways for young people to think, see and bring about change.
Young people work collaboratively as equal partners with their teachers, artists, local arts organisations and the National Theatre to co-create local artworks and creative projects in response to issues which matter to them.
In Year 2 we ran 1,811 sessions across 56 schools in England, employed 166 artists who have inspired creativity through Speak Up sessions and held 32 training events for teachers and artists.

THE IMPORTANCE OF BEIGN EARNEST
A Trivial Comedy for Serious People
Our smash-hit 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 (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.
West End Cast:
We hear what guests at our star-studded premiere thought of Beth Steel's smash-hit new play, Till the Stars Come Down.
After a sold-out run at the National Theatre, the show transfers to the West End this summer for a strictly limited 13-week run.
★★★★★ ‘A modern classic conquers the West End’ The Times
★★★★★ ‘Beth Steel’s rich, raucous bash’ Daily Mail
★★★★★ ‘Deliriously funny’ Telegraph
★★★★★ 'Chekhov on Heineken' WhatsOnStage
Our smash-hit production of Till The Stars Come Down is a ‘West End triumph’ (Telegraph) – now playing a strictly limited summer season until 27 September.
Written by Beth Steel (The House of Shades) and directed by Bijan Sheibani (Barber Shop Chronicles), this 'sweary, soapy state-of-the-nation hit' (Financial Times) follows a tight-knit family gathering on a scorching summer’s day to celebrate the wedding of Sylvia and Marek. But as the drinks flow and the dancing begins, love is tested, loyalties are stretched, and long-held secrets are revealed.
Hailed as ‘a wedding you’ll never forget — and a play you’ll never stop thinking about’ (Theatre Weekly), this Olivier-nominated ‘critical smash’ (WhatsOnStage) celebrates and confronts what it really means to be a family.
‘If you attend one family wedding this summer, make it Beth Steel’s rich, raucous bash’ (Daily Mail) - Till The Stars Come Down is now playing at the Theatre Royal Haymarket.
A co-production with Eleanor Lloyd Productions, Fiery Angel, Short Street Productions and Access Entertainment.

One man’s dream of the NHS.
From campaigning at the coalfield to leading the battle to create the NHS, Aneurin ‘Nye’ Bevan is often referred to as the politician with greatest influence on our country without ever being Prime Minister.
Confronted with death, Nye’s deepest memories lead him on a mind-bending journey back through his life, from childhood to mining underground, Parliament and fights with Churchill in an epic Welsh fantasia.
Michael Sheen (Under Milk Wood) reprises his role as Nye Bevan in this ‘valiant and valuable affirmation of the NHS’ (★★★★ Telegraph). Written by Tim Price (Teh Internet is Serious Business) and ‘vividly directed’ (★★★★ Times) by Rufus Norris (Small Island), this celebration of the life and legacy of the man who transformed Britain’s welfare state returns to the Olivier following a sell-out run.
Nye plays in the Olivier Theatre for a strictly-limited run from 3 July and at Wales Millennium Centre from 22 August.

Our smash-hit production of Till the Stars Come Down transfers to the West End this summer for a strictly limited 13-week run.
It’s Sylvia and Marek’s wedding and you’re invited. On a scorching summer’s day, a tight-knit family gathers to celebrate. But as the drinks flow and the dancing begins, love is tested, loyalties are stretched, and long-held secrets are revealed.
Written by Beth Steel (The House of Shades) and directed by Bijan Sheibani (Barber Shop Chronicles), this Olivier Award-nominated Best New Play is both ‘deliriously funny’ (Telegraph) and a ‘critical smash’ (WhatsOnStage).
With laugh-out-loud hilarity and heart-wrenching tenderness, Till The Stars Come Down celebrates and confronts what it really means to be a family.
What happens when the happiest day of your life opens the door to a new and uncertain future?
Till the Stars Come Down is playing at the Theatre Royal Haymarket until 27 September.
