The Pitmen Painters theater tickets, National Theatre, Lyttelton, London

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 17:04:29 GMT

In 1934, a group of Ashington miners hired a professor to teach an art appreciation evening class. Rapidly abandoning theory in favour of practice, the pitmen began to paint. Within a few years the most avant-garde artists became their friends and their work was acquired by prestigious collections; but every day they worked, as before, down the mine.
Following sell-out seasons at Live Theatre Newcastle and in the Cottesloe, The Pitmen Painters returns, this time to the Lyttelton. Lee Hall's new play is a humorous, deeply moving and timely look at art, class and politics.

The Year of Magical Thinking theater tickets, National Theatre, Lyttelton, London

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 14:14:30 GMT

he Year of Magical Thinking, adapted for the stage by Joan Didion from her best-selling memoir of the same name, chronicles the aftermath of her husband's sudden death.
Grief turns out to be a place none of us know until we reach it. We know that someone close to us could die. We might expect to feel shock. We do not expect this shock to be obliterative, dislocating to both body and mind. We might expect to be prostrate, inconsolable, crazy with loss. We do not expect to be literally crazy - cool customers who believe that their husband is about to return and need his shoes.

Following a sell-out run on Broadway in 2007, Vanessa Redgrave repeats her award-winning solo performance in David Hare's celebrated production which now receives its UK premiere.
