Jez Butterworth's 'The River' features Paul McGann (Doctor Who), Kerri McLean (Bodkin) and Amanda Ryan (Shameless)

About

Featuring Paul McGann (Doctor Who, Jonathan Creek, Luther), Kerri McLean (Bodkin, Poldark) and Amanda Ryan (Shameless, Casualty).

On a moonless night in August when the sea trout are ready to run, a man brings his new girlfriend to the remote family cabin where he has come for the fly-fishing since he was a boy. But she’s not the only woman he has brought here – and nor is she the last.

From Mojo to Jerusalem and The Ferryman, Jez Butterworth’s plays have won two Olivier Awards, a Tony Award, a Critics Circle Theatre Award, an Evening Standard Theatre Award and more. The River returns to London in the first major revival since its world premiere at the Royal Court in 2012.

Directed by James Haddrell, the creative team is Set and Costume Designer Emily Bestow and Lighting Designer Henry Slater, Sound Designer Julian Starr, and Composer Michaela Murphy.

Run Time: 75 mins (no interval) | Age Recommendation: 16+
