A summer of pleasure. A storm on the horizon.

It’s a hot, beautiful summer in 1905, and Russia’s elite retreat to the countryside to swim, sip champagne and start affairs.

When they’re having this much fun, why care about anything else? But Varvara just can’t shake the feeling that their holiday idyll is built on borrowed time.

As the party continues, how long can they ignore the storm on the horizon?

Following an acclaimed, sold-out run at the National Theatre, Oscar-nominated Rosamund Pike (Saltburn, Gone Girl) brings her ‘transfixing shape-shifting performance’ (Telegraph) to the West End in a ‘searing legal drama’ (Guardian) from the writer and director of the global phenomenon Prima Facie.

Jessica Parks is a maverick London Crown Court Judge; sharp, compassionate, and determined to change a system she knows isn’t always just. But her career exists inter alia (‘among other things’) as she balances motherhood, friendship and the elusive notion of ‘having it all’.

So, when an unthinkable event rocks her finely tuned life, can she hold her family together – or will everything fall apart?

Inter Alia reunites Olivier Award-winning writer Suzie Miller with BAFTA Award-winning director Justin Martin for a ‘swaggering epic’ (Independent) that is bold, witty and deeply human.

Six years on, interviews conducted with a group of survivors and bereaved reveal the impact of the multiple failures that led to a national disaster, asking: how do we stop this ever happening again?

Created from these interviews by Gillian Slovo (Another World: Losing our Children to Islamic State), the play is co-directed by Phyllida Lloyd (The Donmar Shakespeare Trilogy) and Anthony Simpson-Pike (The P Word).
