Absolute Hell Olivier and Tony Award nominee Kate Fleetwood

Absolute Hell by Rodney Ackland

An intoxicating plunge into post-war Soho.

Bomb-blasted London. A Soho den in the hangover from World War II, where members drink into the darkness, night after night. Lying, fighting and seducing, these lost souls and bruised lovers struggle from the rubble of war towards an unknown future.

Rodney Ackland’s extraordinarily provocative play was condemned as ‘a libel on the British people’ when first performed in 1952. Now it emerges as an intoxicating plunge into post-war Soho; full of despair and longing.

The starry cast includes the likes of Olivier and Tony Award nominee Kate Fleetwood (London Road, NT) and Jonathan Singer (Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, West End), as well as Esh Alladi, Joanna David, Charles Edwards, Patricia England, Jenny Galloway, Aaron Heffernan, Lloyd Hutchinson, Martins Imhangbe, Stephanie Jacob, Prasanna Puwanarajah, Anita Reynolds, John Sackville, Liza Sadovy, Eileen Walsh and Danny Webb

Joe Hill-Gibbins returns to the NT to direct a large ensemble in this new production.
