Jared Harris & Joe Cole for The Homecoming. Plus, our reviews of Ulster American and Cold War

This episode discusses themes some listeners may find distressing.

Jared Harris (Mad Men, Chernobyl) and Joe Cole (Gangs of London, Peaky Blinders), join us at the Young Vic to talk about their time in Harold Panter’s The Homecoming, directed by Matthew Dunster.

For our reviews this week it’s Ulster American at Riverside Studios, by David Ireland and directed by Jeremy Herrin, starring Woody Harrelson, Louisa Harland and Andy Serkis. Plus for our second review, Cold War at the Almeida theatre, adapted by Conor McPherson from Pawel Pawlikowski’s award-winning 2018 film, starring Anya Chalotra and Luke Thallon.

We also discuss Indhu Rubasingham being appointed as Director of the National Theatre, the unveiling of a very special plaque honouring Operation Mincemeat's Hester, and Paddington the musical which comes to the West End in 2025.
