1. Andrew Scott’s Vanya
Andrew Scott takes on every role in Simon Stephens’ Olivier Award-winning adaptation of Uncle Vanya. Filmed during a sold-out run at London’s Duke of York’s Theatre last year, Scott’s solo performance captures the intricate dynamics between Helena and Michael with exceptional finesse. This production will have its “live premiere” on National Theatre at Home on September 19.
2. People, Places & Things
On September 19, National Theatre at Home also presents the recent revival of Duncan Macmillan’s powerful addiction drama, starring Denise Gough. This performance will be paired with Scott’s Vanya, offering a double bill of two highly acclaimed West End productions.
3. My Favorite Things
Theatre Royal Drury Lane’s star-studded tribute to Rodgers and Hammerstein, celebrating the 80th anniversary of Oklahoma!, is now available on various streaming platforms. This concert includes songs from South Pacific and The Sound of Music, with Audra McDonald performing the title number.
4. Central Intelligence
Kim Cattrall stars in Radio 4’s 10-part audio drama Central Intelligence, which explores the life of Eloise Page, who joined the CIA in 1947 and spent four decades with the agency. The series will be available on BBC Sounds from September 13, with Ed Harris and Johnny Flynn in supporting roles.
5. More Than One Story
Cardboard Citizens, Black Apron Entertainment, and the Big Issue present More Than One Story, a series of short monologues challenging stereotypes about homelessness. The project features contributions from playwrights such as Sonali Bhattacharyya, Roy Williams, Naomi Westerman, and Charlie Josephine.
