Full Season Announced: The bracingly topical and boisterously funny new play, Future Conditional by Tamsin Oglesby, starring Rob Brydon and a cast of 23 young performers kicks off the season. This is followed in October by Nobel prize-winning Eugene O'Neill's The Hairy Ape. This iconic piece of American drama is brought to our stage by a visionary of British theatre, Richard Jones. The Old Vic's family Christmas show will be the premiere of a new stage adaptation by David Greig of the much-loved fable The Lorax by Dr. Seuss.
2016 begins with Ralph Fiennes starring in Ibsen's late masterpiece The Master Builder, in a new adaptation by David Hare.
Matthew Warchus then directs Harold Pinter's ground breaking classic The Caretaker starring Timothy Spall. Drew McOnie, one of the UK's most innovative theatre choreographers, brings dance to the stage in a reimagining of Robert Louis Stevenson's sinister drama Jekyll and Hyde, before a world premiere of a new musical adaptation of the film Groundhog Day with book by Danny Rubin and music and lyrics by Tim Minchin.
