Get tickets to My Master Builder starring Ewan McGregor & Elizabeth Debicki in London
Hollywood stars Ewan McGregor and Elizabeth Debicki make their long-awaited return to the London stage in My Master Builder, a thrilling new play directed by Michael Grandage.
Written by acclaimed US playwright and screenwriter Lila Raicek, My Master Builder is inspired by Ibsen’s classic The Master Builder. Set in a mansion in the Hamptons on the eve of the Fourth of July, this bold new work explores the vulnerabilities we expose when we open ourselves to love.
Joining Ewan McGregor (Trainspotting, Moulin Rouge) in the cast is Emmy and Golden Globe winner Elizabeth Debicki (Princess Diana in The Crown, The Great Gatsby), and Tony and Olivier Award nominee Kate Fleetwood (The Wheel of Time, A View from the Bridge, 101 Dalmatians).
Reuniting McGregor (Trainspotting, Moulin Rouge!, Star Wars) and Grandage (Disney’s Frozen, Orlando, My Policeman) for the first time since Othello and Guys and Dolls at the Donmar Warehouse, My Master Builder promises to be an unmissable theatrical event.
Don’t miss your chance to see Ewan McGregor live on stage in this captivating new production. Book your tickets now.
My Master Builder is playing at the Wyndham’s Theatre in London from 17 April to 12 July 2025.
On the eve of July 4th in the Hamptons, Elena Solness, a publishing magnate, is preparing to throw a party to celebrate her architect husband, Henry Solness, as he unveils his latest masterpiece. Their already vulnerable union is shattered by the unexpected arrival of Mathilde, a former student of Henry’s, with whom he previously shared an intimate connection. As the evening unfolds, each find themselves face to face with a reckoning that indelibly tilts the axis of their lives.
