Times : 15:00 - 16:30 20:00 - 21:30

National Theatre, Lyttelton, South Bank, Southbank, SE1 9PX

Theatre: , Melodrama

How Much: £35.00 (Highest Price) , £12.00 (Lowest Price)

So this is weird, very risky, but potentially great. Theatre company DV8 take a look at what happens when people take offence to literature, film and art and use violence to make their point. But interestingly, the form of DV8s show is what we'd usually call physical theatre.

It's proved a divisive show with getting 4 or 5 stars from the national papers. But we gave it 3. Read Naima's review to see why.
