On a moonless night in August when the sea trout are ready to run, a man brings his new girlfriend to the remote family cabin where he has come for the fly-fishing since he was a boy. But she's not the only woman he has brought here – and nor is she the last.

From Mojo to Jerusalem and The Ferryman, Jez Butterworth's plays have won two Olivier Awards, a Tony Award, a Critics Circle Theatre Award, an Evening Standard Theatre Award and more. Now The River, the hotly anticipated follow-up to Jerusalem, returns to London in the first major revival since its world premiere at the Royal Court in 2012.
