eurotrash
The first English-language stage adaptation of Christian Kracht's international best-selling novel. A blocked novelist is summoned to Zurich by his elderly mother, who is barely holding things together on vodka, pills and Ferragamo sweaters. Together they set off on a chaotic road trip through the snowy mountains and valleys of Switzerland to give away her fortune, while confronting their own history and that of Europe.
Kathryn Hunter and Ben Whishaw star as mother and son. Colin Teevan adapts the novel and Walter Meierjohann directs.

Buying advice
How to book
eurotrash is one of the hottest tickets in town, so book early if you want the cheapest seats. Seats run from £25 to £65, and peak and off-peak dates cost about the same, so choose the date that suits you.
Ways to pay less
Book ahead for the best value, as the cheapest seats go first for any date. Peak and off-peak prices are close, so choose the date that suits you rather than trying to save a few pounds. The £12 Lucky Dip ticket is the cheapest route in, assigning you a surprise seat at the start of the performance, but your party might not sit together. Otherwise, under-26s and students pay from £15, and groups of ten or more get the biggest reduction.
