The National Theatre is not just coming to Brighton, it’s coming to you, wherever you are. Yep, with its physical presence shuttered, the London theatre has launched its At Home programme on its You Tube channel, so you can, for example, watch the inimitable Mr Corden in the online premiere of One Man, Two Guvnors from the front stalls of your very own sitting room. Extortionate seat prices, begone!
Each show will launch at 7.00pm on Thursdays (the first starts on 2nd April) and will be available until the next Thursday, when a new one comes out.
