White Rabbit Red Rabbit
Nassim Soleimanpour's internationally acclaimed theatrical experiment, White Rabbit Red Rabbit, returns to London with a rotating cast of celebrated actors including David Tennant, Riz Ahmed, Kathryn Hunter, Jodie Whittaker, and Christopher Eccleston. Each night, a different performer encounters an unseen script for the first time, without rehearsal or a director, creating a unique and unrepeatable live event. The play explores themes of obedience, choice, and freedom of expression, feeling as urgent as ever fifteen years after its premiere.
Jessica Hynes performs on 30 November and Reece Shearsmith performs on 14 December 2026.
Buying advice
How to book
Groups get the biggest reduction from £35 a head.
Ways to pay less
With the show closing on 26 October, book for the date you can make, as peak and off-peak prices are close enough that you should prioritise convenience over a small saving. The best value is found on Monday performances, where Stalls and Dress Circle seats are reduced to £35 from £50. If you are happy to gamble, the £25 lottery is another way in, though a seat is not guaranteed. Groups of six or more pay £35 a head on Monday performances.
