Synopsis

"Powerful, populist theatre." -- Mark Lawson

Dickens considered his novel, A Tale Of Two Cities "the best story I have ever written." Interweaving one family's intensely personal drama with the terror and chaos of the French Revolution, it is an epic story of love, sacrifice and redemption amidst horrific violence and world changing events.

In an age when governments across the world seem impotent in the face of increasing unrest, this bold new dramatic adaptation by Mike Poulton (the RSC's Wolf Hall and Bring Up The Bodies) seems more relevant than ever.

A Tale of Two Cities had its world premiere at Northampton's Royal & Derngate Theatre in 2014 and toured the UK in 2016, to audience and critical acclaim.
