I'd recommend checking the websites for all these theaters, see what's playing, and picking whatever show(s) most interest you:
National Theatre
Royal Court
Old Vic
Young Vic
Almeida
Donmar Warehouse
Bridge
Globe
Barbican
RSC (in Stratford, but sometimes brings productions to the Barbican in London)
Menier Chocolate Factory
Southwark Playhouse
Hampstead Theatre
Lyric Hammersmith
There are tons of other companies of course, but I'd say those are kind of the pillars of the non-profit theatre scene. Not unlike the fleet of NYC non-profits like the Public, NYTW, Atlantic, Playwrights Horizons, BAM, and so on. |
