Death of England : The Plays

Omtale

Unless it’s a football match… maybe then or ’em… at the supermarket… food and football, eh, the Englishman common ground Neutral territory for the masses. Yeah a place where no ideas are shared, borrowed or worked through… Perfect. Following acclaimed seasons at the National Theatre, Clint Dyer and Roy Williams’ extraordinary series of three state of the nation plays, Death of England comes to @sohoplace in the West End. These three interconnected plays are, by turns, exhilarating, profoundly moving, funny but furious, and deeply theatrical, available together in this collection. Enjoy as a standalone experience or discover the connections between two or three of the plays as Michael, Delroy, Denise and Carly navigate the joys and challenges of what it means to be British in 2024. The run starred Thomas Coombes (Baby Reindeer), Paapa Essiedu, (I May Destroy You, Gangs of London), Erin Doherty (The Crown) and Sharon Duncan-Brewster (Dune) and was directed by Clint Dyer (NT Deputy Artistic Director). The 'uniquely brilliant' (Evening Standard) Death of England trilogy is unmissable. This collection was published to coincide with the West End run of the Death of England trilogy which ran from July to September 2024 at London's @sohoplace.
