What I wanted was someday, somehow to be the cause of something remarkable.
Before the sunflowers, before the madness, before the fame, there was a quiet kitchen in South London.
It’s 1873, when Ursula’s modest boarding house is disrupted by the unexpected arrival of a young lodger by the name of Vincent Van Gogh. As the household is thrown into chaos, the intimacy of daily life sparks something unexpected between them: longing, purpose and transformation.
The OT presents the first major revival of Nicholas Wright’s Olivier Award-winning Vincent in Brixton. It is directed by the OT’s Carne Associate Director Georgia Green, following her much-admired production of The Mikvah Project.
Niamh Cusack returns to the OT following her scorching performance in That Face.
“One of the best plays ever presented at the National Theatre.” The Times
