The Old Vic today presents Lucy Prebble's new play A Very Expensive Poison, based on the book by Luke Harding and directed by John Crowley.

How theatre should, or should not, be addressing Brexit is a constant topic of conversation. But while Lucy Prebble's phenomenal new work - a combination of horror, espionage thriller, love story and satire, with dazzlingly theatrical framing - doesn't centre around the B world, it is, unquestionably, the play for the present moment.

From Robert Icke's latest to Fleabag, Evita and witchy adventures, here are some of this month's most eye-catching openings.

Berberian Sound Studio marks Luke Pasqualino's professional stage debut. The actor shares how the story resonates today, and reveals why the Donmar Warehouse is 'the perfect theatre to be telling that story in'.

Berberian Sound Studio is a slightly curious play, but a really beautifully styled piece of theatrical craft, and also an indication of the great promise of Tom Scutt as a director.
