First performed in 1677 and updated in 2000 by poet laureate Ted Hughes, Phedre is directed by Tony-award winner Nicholas Hytner (History Boys, Madness Of King George). Starring Helen Mirren (The Queen), Margaret Tyzack (Match Point) and Dominic Cooper (The Duchess, Mamma Mia), PHÈDRE draws its inspiration from Greek mythology. Consumed by an uncontrollable passion for her young stepson and believing her husband, Theseus, to be dead, Phèdre confesses her darkest desires and enters the world of nightmare. When Theseus returns alive and well, Phedre, fearing exposure, accuses her stepson of rape. The result is nothing short of carnage.
An initiative of the UK's National Theatre, NT Live is dedicated to the high definition broadcast of live performances around the world. Launching with the highly-anticipated production of PHÈDRE, this is a unique opportunity for international audiences to enjoy live shows direct from South Bank, London. PHÈDRE will be performed live in London and captured LIVE for Nova audiences to view July 11 & 12, 2009. Please note that NT Live productions cannot be extended, so don’t miss out!
