Overview
Following a sell-out run at the National Theatre, the acclaimed five star production of Beginning transfers to the West End from 15 January 2018. Justine Mitchell and Sam Troughton reprise their critically acclaimed roles as singletons Laura and Danny, in this season’s must-see smash-hit; a tender and funny story about the first fragile moments of risking your heart and taking a chance. The Evening Standard calls David Eldridge's masterful new play "the (anti) romance for 21st century London, and quite simply, magnificent."
Critic reviews
Peeling away the protective layers … both performers hit exactly the right note.....sozzled loners seek a connection in the tech age
A real depth of insight, humour and compassion. David Eldridge's new play is a wry, funny and touching meditation on the loneliness of the singleton in the era of the dating app
The wonderful thing about both Eldridge’s dialogue and Polly Findlay’s production is that they are so effortless.
