In rehearsal: The Suicide starring Javone Prince

Ahead of its opening next month, the National Theatre have released rehearsal images of satirical play The Suicide.

Suhayla El-Bushra transports Nikolai Erdman’s satirical masterpiece The Suicide into a contemporary urban Britain. This provocative, fast-paced and very funny show stars Javone Prince (E4’s PhoneShop, BBC Two’s The Javone Prince Show, Statement of Regret at the NT) and is directed by Nadia Fall.

The Suicide runs from 6 April 2016 until 25 June 2016 at the National Theatre.
