Event Information
Featuring a talented ensemble, including EastEnders star Charlie Brooks
"The National Theatre at its very best" Daily Telegraph
From the imagination of Neil Gaiman, best-selling author of Coraline, Good Omens and The Sandman (now a major Netflix series), comes the National Theatre’s major new stage adaptation of The Ocean at the End of the Lane.
This five-star spectacular from the producers of War Horse and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a thrilling adventure of fantasy, myth and friendship, taking audiences on an epic journey to a childhood once forgotten and the darkness that lurks at the very edge of it.
Returning to his childhood home, a man finds himself standing beside the pond of the old Sussex farmhouse where he used to play. He's transported to his 12th birthday when his remarkable friend Lettie claimed it wasn't a pond, but an ocean–a place where everything is possible...
Plunged into a magical world, their survival depends on their ability to reckon with ancient forces that threaten to destroy everything around them.
★★★★★ 'Theatre at its best.' Daily Telegraph
★★★★★ 'Hauntingly memorable, this knockout production is theatre at its best.' Independent
★★★★★ 'There's nothing around to beat this thrillingly imaginative show.' Mail on Sunday
★★★★★ 'Shows like this don't come around very often.' Time Out
