Description

The Motive and the Cue (West End Edition) by Jack Thorne is a fierce and funny play that offers a glimpse into the politics of a rehearsal room and the relationship between art and celebrity. A collaboration between two titans, one a patrician from an earlier age of theatre and the other a famous movie star, threatens to unravel as rehearsals progress. The stage is set for a clash of styles and personalities, with the exacting direction of John Gielgud pitted against the glamour of Richard Burton's Hollywood persona. This edition was published alongside the West End transfer in 2023, following its world premiere at the National Theatre, London. Originally commissioned and co-produced by Neal Street Productions, this play explores the tensions between artistic vision and celebrity culture, making for a compelling read about the world of theatre and performance.
