Passion Play

Passion Play Theatre breaks

About the show

A Passion Play theatre break will send you to the West End revival of Peter Nichols’ ruthless comedy on the ravages of adultery. Starring the fantastic Zoë Wannamaker, Samantha Bond, Annabel Scholey, Oliver Cotton and Owen Teale, the play is an examination of the pain that can be caused when those we love hurt us in the most intimate ways imaginable.

Cleverly staged with two actors each playing the part of the wronged wife and suffering husband, Passion Play allows a glimpse into the complicated interior of a marriage in free fall, where the conflict between partners is just as raw as the conflicts within.

What to expect from Passion Play

Those staying in London on a Passion Play theatre break can expect world-class drama from some of the biggest names in modern theatre. An exploration of the intensities of sex, desire and betrayal, Passion Play reveals the illicit secrets at the heart of the marriage, yet with a keen and grim eye for laughs.
