  • National Theatre Presents Uk Premiere of the Lincoln
    NATIONAL THEATRE PRESENTS UK PREMIERE OF THE LINCOLN CENTER THEATER PRODUCTION OF OSLO AT THE LYTTELTON THEATRE, TRANSFERRING TO THE HAROLD PINTER THEATRE, IN THE WEST END The National Theatre today (6 April 2017) announced the UK premiere of Lincoln Center Theater’s critically acclaimed production of OSLO, a gripping new play by J T Rogers, directed by Bartlett Sher which is currently in previews at the Vivian Beaumont Theater on Broadway. OSLO has a strictly limited run at the NT’s Lyttelton Theatre from 5 – 23 September, and will transfer to the Harold Pinter Theatre in London’s West End from 30 September to 30 December 2017 in association with ATG. Press night 12 September at the National Theatre. OSLO tells the true story of how one young couple, Norwegian diplomat Mona Juul and her husband, social scientist Terje Rød-Larsen planned and orchestrated top-secret, high-level meetings between the State of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organisation, which culminated in the signing of the historic 1993 Oslo Accords. Featuring dozens of characters and set in locations across the globe, Oslo is both a political thriller and the personal story of a small band of women and men struggling together – and fighting each other – as they seek to change the world. (Mona Juul is currently the Norwegian Ambassador to the UK – the first woman to occupy the role) NT Director Rufus Norris said: ‘The National Theatre is privileged to have the opportunity to present Lincoln Center Theater’s production of J T Rogers’ extraordinary play, told with passion and humour, about a significant period in our recent political history.
