BELLEVILLE

7 December 2017 – 3 February 2018

BELLEVILLE

Americans Zack and Abby are bright, young and recently married. He’s a doctor combating infant disease. She’s an actress, also teaching yoga. It’s just before Christmas and they’re living the expat highlife in bohemian Belleville, Paris.

It’s all a little too perfect.

Writer Amy Herzog is ‘one of the brightest new talents in the theater’ (New York Times). Her acclaimed play about a romantic dream gone sour receives its UK premiere. Michael Longhurst (Amadeus, National Theatre; Constellations, Royal Court, West End and Broadway) directs at the Donmar for the first time.

‘James Norton and Imogen Poots bring fizzy chemistry’
Evening Standard

★★★★ ‘A remarkable, urgent play… powerful viewing’ Financial Times

‘Terrifically tense; James Norton and Imogen Poots are brilliant’ Time Out
