Almeida Theatre will launch its season on December 2 with Nine Lessons And Carols, a new play from Chris Bush examining themes of isolation and connection. 

On 23rd September 2020, David Bedella, Hannah Waddingham and Joe Stilgoe along with a superb cadre of West End musicians gave of their time and talent in a show laced with equal parts emotion and humour to benefit charities that support the UK theatre community.

Each Wednesday from 9th to 30th September, a dazzling line-up of the West End's most well-loved singers will perform alongside some of theatre's top musicians in West End Unplugged (live from L-Acoustics Creations in Highgate, London) - a series of four 45-minute charity concerts.

In this Bel Air tale of love and family, intimacy is a commodity and the surreal gets real.

Following a critically acclaimed run at the Old Vic, with a subsequent West End transfer, Conor McPherson's Girl From The North Country has been remounted with an almost completely new cast. It had a short run at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto, and is now back in London for a limited engagement at the Gielgud Theatre prior to residencies of Upstart Crow and the hotly anticipated transfer of Broadway's To Kill A Mockingbird.

Set in Bob Dylan's hometown of Duluth, Minnesota in 1934, writer and director Conor McPherson's GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY is equal parts bleak and beautiful. The busy story centers on the Laine family and their guest house; stressed father and husband Nick (Donald Sage MacKay) is busy caring for his wife Elizabeth (Katie Brayben), whose dementia has progressed to the point where she's like a rowdy child with a sailor's mouth. His issues double with their children Gene (Colin Bates), an alcoholic, would-be writer and Marianne (Gloria Obianyo), their adopted Black daughter who's several months pregnant.

After critically acclaimed, smash-hit runs at The Old Vic London, in London's West End, and at The Public Theater New York, Girl from the North Country comes to Toronto's Royal Alexandra Theatre for a strictly limited engagement. Performances are now on stage through Sunday, November 24. Get a first look at the cast in action!
