The National Theatre's Olivier-nominated production of Till the Stars Come Down, which made its world premiere in January 2024 in the Dorfman Theatre, will transfer to London鈥檚 West End this summer.
Beth Steel's play, which is set at Sylvia and Marek鈥檚 wedding and follows a larger-than-life family struggling to come to terms with a changing world, will begin performances July 1 prior to an official opening July 9 at the Theatre Royal Haymarket for a limited engagement through September 27. Bijan Sheibani directs.
Casting will be announced at a later date.
Playwright Steel said in a statement, "I began the play as writer-in-residence at the National Theatre's New Work Department, a career-changing attachment that gave me the space and support needed to bring it into being, and it was an honor to watch Bijan Sheibani and the wider team unleash it! I can't wait to see them do it again.鈥�
The production also has set and costume design by Samal Blak, lighting design by Paule Constable, choreography and movement direction by Aline David, sound design by Gareth Fry, revival direction by Elin Schofield, original casting by Alistair Coomer, casting by Juliet Horsely, dialect coaching by Charmian Hoare, intimacy direction by Asha Jennings-Grant, and fight direction by Kev McCurdy.
Tickets will go on sale to the general public March 12. On-stage seating will also be available throughout the run.
The National is co-producing with Eleanor Lloyd Productions, Fiery Angel, Short Street Productions, and Access Entertainment.
