NT Live: Hamlet (22nd January, 2026)
Let’s face it, we’ve all seen at least one version of Hamlet adapted to the stage, but we can guarantee that you’ve never seen it like this. Director Robert Hastie’s modern reimaging of the Shakespearean classic brings a whole new edge to the classic story of betrayal and leadership, fronted by none other than Olivier Award winner Hiran Abeysekera. For fans of The Bard, this is one event you definitely don’t want to miss.
NT Live: The Audience (26th Febrary, 2026)
It’s been more than a decade since Helen Mirren took to the National Theatre boards as our late Queen Elizabeth II, but NT Live is bringing back The Audience to our screens. The Audience charts the private weekly conversations Queen Elizabeth II had with each of the 12 prime ministers during her reign, from Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron.
NT Live: The Playboy of the Western World (28th May, 2026)
A dreamy Irish duo if ever we saw one, Nicola Coughlan, Éanna Hardwicke, and Siobhàn McSweeney star in John Millington Synge’s brilliant story, directed by Caitríona McLaughlin. The Playboy of the Western World follows Pegeen Flaherty, a landlady whose life is forever changed when a man, Christy Mahon, enters her pub and claims to have killed his father. Bedding his way into village life, his comfortable life is threatened when a second man turns up…
