Everyone should see this play. Very timely. How we get manipulated a little bit at a time do do the things that are totally against our own values and conscience.

[@sallyatticum]

Sadly, it's not showing anywhere near me. It is in very few theaters in the US.

[@carolhancock5152]

superb play and acting

[@ElBeeEss]

Indeed. That became startlingly apparent to me both during and in the aftermath of the Covid pandemic.

[@raynarks]

@@sallyatticum I saw it at a cinema it was being streamed to.

[@sallyatticum]

@@raynarks Aw, lucky!

[@annamuller12]

Can you please add this to your streaming service at some point? I think it's such an amazing performance by Tennant, Small and Levey and I'd love to see it again!

No one has discovered the joys of video upload for distant events in Los Angeles. So I have to just keep rewatching this clip and try to pretend I'm watching the whole thing.

Use a VPN, set it to the UK, sign up to national theatre live, and you can watch the whole thing

[@stephaniestephanie1290]

oh my goodness. Thanks. @@GG-hi5if

[@patreeziasf]

Seriously brilliant performance of time critical play

[@chantalallan8019]

I saw Sharon in a cafe recently, I've never seen David in real life though!

[@MisterG2323]

Very much looking forward to seeing the full show before I croak.

[@Gosperella26]

I hope you do and hope it's a very long time before you 'croak'.
