The history-making global hit returns!
The Tony and Olivier Award-winning hit play The History Boys is back! Written by Alan Bennett and directed by Nicholas Hytner, the landmark National Theatre production returns after 20 years and is ready to make history all over again.
Loved by a generation, The History Boys tracks the course of eight schoolboys at an all-boys Grammar School in Sheffield, as they navigate sex, school politics and their teachers’ intellectual battle of wills.
“History, it’s just one f***ing thing after another.”
Subversive, poignant and deeply funny, The History Boys explores sexuality, adolescence and the nature of history, challenging the purpose of education whilst reflecting the changing face of 1980s England.
Don’t miss your chance to see one of the defining plays of the 21st Century.
Opening at the Theatre Royal Haymarket, 10 April for a strictly limited 16-week run.
