The PSA is pleased to offer members the chance to win a pair of tickets to West-End political drama, This House. Following two sell-out seasons at the National Theatre, James Graham’s critically acclaimed play transfers to the Garrick Theatre this November.
1974. The UK faces economic crisis and a hung parliament. In a culture hostile to cooperation, it’s a period when votes in the House of Commons are won or lost by one, when there ate fist fights in the bars and when sick MPs are carried through the lobby to register their vote. It’s a time when a staggering number of politicians die, and the building creaks under idiosyncrasies and arcane traditions.
***** ‘Ferociously witty’ Daily Telegraph
Set in the engine rooms of Westminster, This House strips politics down to the practical realities of those behind the scenes: the whips who roll up their sleeves and on occasion bend the rules to shepherd and coerce a diverse chorus of MPs within the Mother of all Parliaments.
Premiered at the National Theatre in 2012, This House is written by James Graham (The Vote, Privacy) and directed by Headlong Artistic Director Jeremy Herrin (People, Places and Things, Wolf Hall).
