Follies is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by James Goldman. The story concerns a reunion in a crumbling Broadway theatre, scheduled for demolition, of the past performers of the "Weismann's Follies", a musical revue (based on the Ziegfeld Follies), that played in that theatre between the world wars.
"This is a wonderful, joyous, bonkers, happy, silly, but also quite dark telling of a story we think we know." How do you create the sound of a brand-new musical? Jim Fortune talks us through the magic behind big-hearted and mythic Hex, based on Sleeping Beauty. https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/shows/hex
We're releasing three tracks from the show, recorded exclusively as a first listen: 'Probly', 'Sixteen' and 'In the Middle'.

Deep in the wood, a lonely fairy longs for someone to bless.
But when she’s summoned to the palace to help the princess sleep, her dream turns into a nightmare and her blessing becomes a curse. Fairy is plunged into a frantic, hundred-year quest to somehow make everything right.
Rosalie Craig plays the Fairy in this vividly original retelling of Sleeping Beauty that goes beyond the waking kiss.
Rufus Norris directs with music by Jim Fortune, book by Tanya Ronder, lyrics by Rufus Norris, designs by Katrina Lindsay and choreography by Jade Hackett.
Hex is in the Olivier theatre from 4 Dec 2021.

Songs from Hex: The Studio Sessions was recorded at Konk Studios on the 30 September 2021. Produced by National Theatre. Recorded by Julian Simmons and Matt Jaggar Assistant Engineer Andy Whyte.

After Life is a new play at the National Theatre (2 June – 24 July 2021) written by Jack Thorne, adapted from the film by Hirokazu Kore-eda, with concept by Bunny Christie, Jeremy Herrin and Jack Thorne. It is a co-production with Headlong. https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/shows/after-life
If you could spend eternity with just one precious memory, what would it be?
A group of strangers grapple with this impossible question as they find themselves in a bureaucratic waiting room between life and death. Encouraged by enigmatic officials, they must sift through their past lives to choose their forever.
From Bunny Christie (The Curious Incident of the Dog in The Night-time), Jeremy Herrin (People, Places and Things) and Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child) comes a surreal and powerfully human look at the way we view our lives.
Inspired by Hirokazu Kore-eda's award-winning film, After Life is a new co-production with Headlong.
The cast of After Life includes June Watson, Millicent Wong, Nino Furuhata, Maddie Holliday, Togo Igawa, Kevin McMonagle, Anoushka Lucas, Jack James Ryan, Simon Startin, Danielle Henry and Luke Thallon.

'I'm simply some prized possession!' Playing one of the greatest female roles of modern drama, the late Helen McCrory features alongside Peter Sullivan and Tom Burke in Terence Rattigan’s devastating masterpiece. The Deep Blue Sea is now streaming worldwide on National Theatre at Home: https://www.ntathome.com/
When Hester is found following attempted suicide, the story of her tempestuous affair and marriage breakdown begins to emerge. With it comes a portrait of need, loneliness and long-repressed passion.

We’ve released our recording of The Deep Blue Sea on National Theatre at Home in fond memory of Helen McCrory. She had a long and rich association with the National Theatre, beginning with Blood Wedding in 1991. The Deep Blue Sea was her most recent performance here in 2016.

A community is sleeping. If you listen closely, you can hear their dreams.
The retired sea captain yearning for his lost love.
The landlady living in terror of her guests.
A father who can no longer access his memories.
A son in search of redemption.
As they awake to boiled eggs and the postman, the residents of a small Welsh village juggle old secrets and new realities.
