Three Young Vic shows to book now

By CW Contributor on 20/11/2018

An African-American version of Arthur Miller, Idris Elba's musical and another Lorca tragedy: book now the three highlights of the Young Vic 2019 season

Death of a Salesman

Marianne Elliott directs a new production of Arthur Miller's masterful, Pulitzer-winning 1949 play. This production of Death of a Salesman tells the story from the perspective of an African-American family.

Tree

Not content with starring in world-famous TV dramas The Wire and Luther, or DJing at London nightclubs, or owning a bar, Idris Elba is turning his talents to writing. He has teamed up with Young Vic artistic director Kwame Kwei-Armah for a new musical play about the soul and spirit of South Africa.

Blood Wedding

Direct Yaël Farber re-imagines Federíco Garcia Lorca's Blood Wedding. Last time the Young Vic did Lorca was 2016's superlative production of Yerma, so we have high hopes for this revival.
