Finborough's Autumn Season Features Noel Coward's HOME CHAT and THE RELUCTANT FUNDAMENTALIST

The Finborough Theatre's Autumn season features five new plays - a 60th anniversary season from the National Youth Theatre including new plays by two Olivier Award-nominated playwrights and the first ever stage production of Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist; as well as two world premieres about the refugee and immigrant experience from award-winning North American dramatists. Also presented: the first UK production in nearly 90 years of Noël Coward's Home Chat, and the UK premiere of hit Off Broadway musical Adding Machine: A Musical.

The season opens with a season of new writing from the National Youth Theatre, playing 9-27 August 2016, celebrating the NYT's 60th anniversary: James Fritz's The Fall plays 9-13 August 2016; Bola Agbaje's Bitches plays 16-20 August 2016, and the first ever stage production of Mohsin Hamid's Man Booker Shortlisted The Reluctant Fundamentalist plays 23-27 August 2016.
