For the first time ever, one of William Shakespeare's greatest comedies is staged at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, directed by Holly Race Roughan with Naeem Hayat! The tale of an enchanted forest full of fairy folk, and the unsuspecting mortals who stumble into it, is a brilliant example of the height of Shakespeare's comedy all wrapped up in the universal theme of love and the complications that are bound to come with it. Don't miss it!

Launching a major five-year Shakespeare series for Chris Harper Productions, Tom Morris (War Horse, Touching the Void) directs trailblazer David Harewood (Homeland, Supergirl) - the first Black actor to play Othello at the National Theatre in 1997 - in a searing, contemporary take on the Bard's tale of jealousy and betrayal, featuring music by Grammy nominated PJ Harvey.

As part of The National Theatre's biggest season yet, Olivier Award-winner Hiran Abeysekera (The Father and the Assassin, Life of Pi) steps into the shoes of the titular Danish Prince as his life descends into a heady tale of grief, betrayal, and bloody revenge in Shakespeare's famous and fearless tragedy.
