The National Theatre is going to stream a free play every Thursday night


'... the NT is switching to its YouTube channel. From April 2, under the banner of National Theatre at Home, every Thursday (7pm GMT/2pm EST) will see a new National Theatre play released ? free to watch for one week ? along with bonus content including cast and creative Q&As and post-stream talks.


There?s a definite emphasis on family-friendly good cheer for the line-up so far, which kicks off with a big hitter: Richard Bean?s beloved farce ?One Man, Two Guvnors?, starring a pre-chat-show-days James Corden. Over the next few weeks you can expect a string of family-friendly titles, though naturally there will be those hoping for some of the real NT Live blockbusters, notably ?Hamlet? and ?Frankenstein? starring Benedict Cumberbatch and ?Coriolanus? starring Tom Hiddleston.


The initial programme is:


April 2 ?One Man, Two Guvnors? by Richard Bean, starring James Corden. Read our review.


April 9 ?Jane Eyre?, adapted by Sally Cookson. Read our review.


April 16 ?Treasure Island?, adapted by Bryony Lavery. Read our review.


April 23 ?Twelfth Night? by William Shakespeare, starring Tamsin Greig. Read our review.


Additionally, the National Theatre will be rolling out National Theatre Collection study resources to pupils now learning at home.


The NT has also confirmed that live performances won?t restart until at least July.'

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Rockets · Posted

      Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.

      So you are also old enough to remember the Heath Out protest by the TUC when unemployment hit 1 million? We all have selective memories, this thread is no different. Please give me a list of the Labour sleaze. And compare it to the Tories.  There are a few of you who appear to have a long term dislike of Labour, so all this is a gift.
