The Other Place - West End History , Info & More

Lyttelton Theatre
National Theatre London

Two sisters reunite on the anniversary of the death of their father.


Their uncle has remodelled their family home, in an attempt at a fresh start. But one sister’s sudden reappearance threatens to shatter this fragile idyll as she demands justice for the pain she carries.

Amid the debris and the new extension, guilt, grief and greed battle it out in the family’s competing dreams of their future. When we are faced with the suffering of others, even those closest to us, can we look away?

Alexander Zeldin (The Confessions; Faith, Hope and Charity) directs his new play, with music by Yannis Philippakis (Foals).

Cast includes Emma D’Arcy (House of the Dragon), Alison Oliver (Saltburn), Tobias Menzies (The Crown) and Nina Sosanya (Love Actually).

__For assisted performances, please book directly through the National Theatre.__

Review Roundup: MACBETH, starring Sam Heughan and Lia Williams
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Oct 27, 2025


Directed by Daniel Raggett, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s brings a new version of Macbeth to the small studio space in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Review: MACBETH, starring Sam Heughan and Lia Williams
by Cindy Marcolina - Oct 26, 2025


Something wicked this way comes: it’s another exciting high-concept Shakespeare. Director Daniel Raggett moves the action of the Scottish Play to a safe-house pub in the midst of a racketeering war. Succession meets Sons of Anarchy with a hint of The Sopranos in this daring, new production. With a hypnotic tempo that’s almost cinematic in nature, Raggett leaves you on the edge of your seat, gasping for air, mouth gaping and eyes wide. It’s Macbeth like you’ve never seen it before. Is it an extravagant idea on paper? It sure is. Does it work? Flawlessly and explosively so.

Review: 4.48 PSYCHOSIS, Royal Court Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Jun 19, 2025


Sarah Kane is part of the mythology of British theatre. A brilliant mind, unbridled in her explorations of existence. Severely depressed, she hanged herself in the toilets of King’s College Hospital on the 20th of February, 1999. Tragically, it wasn’t a surprise. She wrote and talked about suicide very matter-of-factly. Kane authored, in total, five plays and a short film, all of equal, tragic precision in their emotional quality. It’s astonishing how much beauty came from someone who suffered so intensely.
