John National Theatre Live

JOHN
The internationally renowned DV8 Physical Theatre bring their powerful new production to the National Theatre.
Contains adult themes, strong language and nudity

JOHN is a new verbatim dance-theatre work conceived and directed by Lloyd Newson, Artistic Director of DV8 Physical Theatre and authentically depicts real-life stories, where movement and spoken word combine to create an intense, moving and poignant theatrical experience.
Newson interviewed more than 50 men asking them frank questions, initially about love and sex. One of those men was John.
What emerged was a story that is both extraordinary and touching. Years of crime, drug use and struggling to survive lead John on a search in which his life converges with others, in an unexpected place, unknown by most.
...and that's why I come here, because it's another door that's opened, you never know where this is gonna lead.
Don't miss this eagerly anticipated new production, broadcast live from the National Theatre.

DV8 Physical Theatre has produced 18 highly acclaimed dance-theatre works and four films for television, which have garnered over 50 national and international awards.

'Outstandingly effective and gripping dance theatre. A brilliant performance by Hannes Langolf.'
