Following a sell-out run at the Royal Court Theatre, NATIONAL THEATRE LIVE will broadcast the acclaimed West End transfer of Hangmen by Olivier and Academy Award winner Martin McDonagh (The Pillowman, The Cripple of Inishmaan, In Bruges), with a cast including David Morrissey, Andy Nyman and Johnny Flynn, live from London's Wyndham's Theatre to cinemas internationally on Thursday, March 3, 2016 (dates vary internationally).

Produced by Robert Fox, Matthew Byam Shaw for Playful Productions and Royal Court Theatre Productions, Hangman runs in the West End until 5 March. Hangmen is the Royal Court Theatre's first collaboration with NT Live.

Directed by Matthew Dunster, the full cast of Hangmen is: Josef Davies, James Dryden, Johnny Flynn, Tony Hirst, John Hodgkinson, Bronwyn James, David Morrissey, Andy Nyman, Craig Parkinson, Ryan Pope, Sally Rogers and Simon Rouse. Set and costume design is by Anna Fleischle, lighting by Joshua Carr and sound by Ian Dickinson for Autograph.

In his small pub in Oldham, Harry is something of a local celebrity. But what's the second-best hangman in England to do on the day they've abolished hanging? Amongst the cub reporters and sycophantic pub regulars dying to hear Harry's reaction to the news, a peculiar stranger lurks, with a very different motive for his visit.
