Save big on tickets to Mike Bartlett's dark new political comedy at The Old Vic
 

The year is 2024 and — in the United States of America — democracy is on the brink. This is The 47th: a hotly-anticipated new play by Mike Bartlett that looks ahead to the next US presidential race with vicious humour and a very familiar cast of characters.

 With Bertie Carvel as Donald Trump, Tamara Tunie as Kamala Harris and Lydia Wilson as Ivanka Trump, The 47th sees the biggest figures in US politics vie for power, exposing the "underbelly of the greatest political show on Earth". Find out what it costs to take the White House as you soak up the work of one of Britain's most exciting contemporary playwrights at leading London theatre, The Old Vic.

A Terrific Team, Reunited

The 47th sees the team behind the multi-award-winning King Charles III back together again. The hit 'future history' play was written by Mike Bartlett and directed by Rupert Goold, and the dynamic duo now join forces once more for this Old Vic, Sonia Friedman Productions and Annapurna Theatre co-production.
Art Imitating Life

"I get a chill reading this script because it's completely credible", says Bertie Carvel, who plays Trump, in conversation with The Guardian. And that's no mean feat — as the Olivier Award-winning actor explains, it's "so hard to write Trump because he does stuff you literally can't make up." Read the rest of his interview for more insights on how the production brings such a divisive figure to life.
A Fantastic Value Theatre Trip

Thanks to our discount, you can be amongst the first to see The 47th for half the usual price — in some of the best seats of the house, no less.
