The latest National Theatre Live theatrical release Leopoldstadt is coming to select cinemas on Thursday 5th February, 2022.
The play, written by “Britain’s greatest living playwright” (The Times), Tony and Academy Award-winner Tom Stoppard and directed by Patrick Marber is a passionate drama of love, family and endurance in the 20th Century.
Filmed live on stage in London’s West End, “Tom Stoppard’s masterpiece is magnificent” (Independent) and should not be missed.
At the beginning of the 20th century, Leopoldstadt was the old, crowded Jewish quarter of Vienna, Austria. But Hermann Merz, a factory owner baptised Jew now married to Catholic Gretl, has moved up in the world. We follow his family’s story across half a century, passing through the convulsions of war, revolution, impoverishment, annexation by Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. A company of 40 actors represent each generation of the family in this epic, but intimate play.
The key cast are Aidan McArdle as Hermann Merz, Faye Castelow as Gretl Merz, Sebastian Armesto as Nathan Merz and Art Froushan as Leo Merz
