Welcome to a not-so-blissful family weekend! Emmy and two-time Tony-winning star Christine Baranski has played every role under the stars, and is now ticking off a major career milestone with her long-awaited West End debut in this sparkling reimagining of Noel Coward's century-old comedy, starring alongside Oscar nominee Richard E. Grant, under the direction of Emily Burns.

American playwright Tracey Scott Wilson's searing contemporary drama makes its British premiere at the Olivier Theatre. Directed by Clint Dyer (Death of England: Closing Time), the production stars BAFTA-winning actress Letitia Wright (Black Panther) making her National Theatre debut after a celebrated screen career, alongside an ensemble including Lorraine Toussaint (Orange is the New Black), Ashley Thomas (Bashy) and Wilf Scolding (Cabaret). Originally running in Manhattan in 2003, The Story is a gripping thriller based on a true story, navigating the risks of telling a story others would rather leave buried.

This autumn, the West End welcomes the highly anticipated world premiere of The Standard of Living starring Rory Kinnear and Natalia Osipova, a new play by Olivier Award-winning playwright James Graham (Punch, Quiz, Ink, Dear England). Staged at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, this strictly limited run follows intellectual titan John Maynard Keynes, a man who rewrote the rules of modern economics during a world on the brink of crisis.

Tony Award winner Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Modern Family) stars in this fascinating one-man play following a critically acclaimed New York run, premiering at London's Menier Chocolate Factory this September. Diving into one of the most turbulent periods of celebrated author Truman Capote's life, TRU utilises immersive elements in an intimate, funny, and heartfelt exploration of an American icon.

Writer Conor McPherson (The Weir, The Girl From The North Country) turns his attention to one of theatre's greatest works, with Olivier and Tony Award nominee Ian Rickson (Uncle Vanya, Jerusalem, The Weir) directing this new adaptation of Anton Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard in London! The production is set to star five-time BAFTA Award winner and British icon Kristin Scott Thomas as Lyubov Ranevskaya.

Comedian and actor Andy Sandberg adds a few more strings to his bow as this new play, penned and directed by the SNL and Lonely Island star, enjoys its world premiere this autumn at Riverside Studios. Based on true events, Affluenza is a razor-sharp exploration of power, privilege and generational wealth, as evidenced by one of the most reviled American legal defences of recent times.
