Robert Hastie has announced his final season at Sheffield Theatres, as he steps down after eight years as Artistic Director. New productions will be running from summer 2024 to spring 2025 in the Crucible Theatre and Tanya Moiseiwitsch Playhouse. Learn more about the season lineup here!

New rehearsal images have been released of National Youth Theatre’s forthcoming production Ada, written by Rebecca Manley and directed by Andrew Whyment especially for young audiences. Check out the photos here!

Now writer and performer Jack Holden ('Ten Per Cent', Amazon Prime Video; 'War Horse', National Theatre), and his co-star John Patrick Elliott (The Litle Unsaid), who mixes and performs live an original electronic soundtrack during the show, will bring their stunning West End production to HOME, Manchester from 20 July - 12 August, 2023.

As part of the first international staging outside of the United Kingdom, the Olivier Award nominated play, Cruise, written and originally performed by Jack Holden, heads to Cape Town, South Africa to The Homecoming Centre (formerly The Fugard Theatre) from 12th - 30th April 2023.

After a virtual ceremony in 2020 and a pandemic-induced silence in 2021, The Stage Debut Awards have finally returned in all their glitz and glamour the day before the State Funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. Stage veterans and shooting starlets gathered to celebrate their debuts and, after a nationwide minute of silence at eight sharp, Susan Wokoma kicked off the festivities.

Book now for the final weeks of Cruise: tickets at £25, £35 and £45 as part of London Theatre Week.

After a stellar outing last year and a nomination for Best New Play at the Olivier Awards, Jack Holden’s buzzing tale of a long-lost but never forgotten gay London is back with a smirk and a tear for a limited engagement in the West End.

Olivier-nominated play CRUISE has returned to the West End for a strictly limited run at the Apollo Theatre from 13 August – 4 September.  Check out all new photos here!

CRUISE is an urgent, moving and inspirational play written and performed by Jack Holden (Ten Per Cent, Amazon Prime Video; War Horse, National Theatre), directed by Bronagh Lagan (The Rise and Fall of Little Voice, UK Tour; Little Women, Park Theatre), with original music composed and performed live by John Patrick Elliott (The Little Unsaid).
