The Real Thing
April 5, 2023 - April 15, 2023
“Exclusive rights isn’t love, it’s colonisation.”
Tom Stoppard’s brilliant, award-winning play of surprise and wit has beguiled audiences for decades.
Henry is married to Charlotte. Max is married to Annie. Henry – possibly the sharpest playwright of his generation – has written a play about a couple whose marriage is on the brink of collapse. Charlotte and Max, his leading couple, are about to find out that sometimes life imitates art.Hilarious and thought-provoking, this thrilling exploration of love and infidelity will have you questioning: “What is the real thing…?”
We return to York Theatre Royal’s Studio with one of Stoppard’s wittiest and most moving plays.
