Theatre production. Great Britain 2016, 155 min. Stuart Thompson and Playful Production. Directed by Sean Mathias. In English with Russian subtitles. Following their hit run on Broadway, Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart return to the West End stage in Harold Pinter’s No Man's Land, broadcast live to cinemas from Wyndham’s Theatre, London. One summer's evening, two ageing writers, Hirst and Spooner, meet in a Hampstead pub and continue their drinking into the night at Hirst's stately house nearby. As the pair become increasingly inebriated, and their stories increasingly unbelievable, the lively conversation soon turns into a revealing power game, further complicated by the return home of two sinister younger men. Also starring Owen Teale and Damien Molony, don’t miss this glorious revival of Pinter’s comic classic. The broadcast will be followed by an exclusive Q&A with the cast and director Sean Mathias. Awards and festivals: Evening Standard Theatre Award - Best Revival.

Theatre production. Great Britain 2016, 170 min. Directed by Rufus Norris. Play by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill in collaboration with Elisabeth Hauptmann. In a new adaptation by Simon Stephens. London scrubs up for the coronation. The thieves are on the make, the whores on the pull, the police cutting deals to keep it all out of sight. Mr and Mrs Peachum are looking forward to a bumper day in the beggary business, but their daughter didn’t come home last night. Mack the Knife is back in town. Contains filthy language and immoral behaviour. A landmark of twentieth-century musical theatre, The Threepenny Opera comes to the National Theatre in a bold new production. In this vivid and darkly comic new adaptation by award-winning playwright Simon Stephens’ (Port, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time) Brecht’s book and lyrics meets Kurt Weill’s extraordinary score. Rory Kinnear (Hamlet, James Bond) plays Macheath.
