Hampstead Theatre has partnered with The Guardian, re-releasing live stream recordings of productions from its archives including Mike Bartlett’s Wild, Beth Steel’s Wonderland, and Howard Brenton’s Drawing the Line, as part of its #HampsteadTheatreAtHome series.
The initiative is designed to 'support audiences in isolation by sharing world class entertainment with them in their home for free', after the venue closed following government advice on March 16. Roxana Silbert, Artistic Director of Hampstead Theatre, said 'I hope these productions offer audiences entertainment, connection and nourishment in a time of uncertainty and isolation. These three plays all shine a light on turbulent points in our international history which, along with acknowledging the worst of human behaviour, celebrates the ingenuity, humour, compassion and resilience of the best'.
