Will a comedy about an eccentric 18th-century jack-of-all-trades be able to connect with audiences?

The company launches a 12-month season The Winter’s Tale and Terence Rattigan’s backstage 1948 farce Harlequinade.

This revival of Harley Granville Barker’s 1907 political drama fails to live up to the play's reputation.

Kenneth Branagh has exhumed an old Terence Rattigan one-act that could have stayed buried.

Bone and flesh are punished under the merciless grind of industrialisation in Richard Jones' visceral production.

For the price of a single admission, three plays are offered up at the National.

Denise Gough does brilliant work as an addict going through the sheer hard grit of rehabilitation.

This play was screaming for a modern reboot, and the result is a blistering triumph.

Nicole Kidman plays Rosalind Franklin, whose contribution to science was stifled by her male colleagues.

A play about a real-life gay college student driven to suicide fails to capitalize on its emotional material.
