Martin Shaw and Gary Wilmot star in Robert Bolt’s award-winning drama A Man for All Seasons.

Martin Shaw (Judge John Deed, Inspector George Gently, The Professionals) stars as Sir Thomas More – scholar, ambassador, Lord Chancellor and friend to King Henry VIII. Above all, he is a man of integrity, loved by the common people and his own family.

When Henry demands a divorce from Catherine of Aragon, clearing the way for him to marry Anne Boleyn, the staunchly Catholic Thomas is forced to choose between his loyalty and his own conscience, committing an incredible act of defiance for which he eventually pays the ultimate price…

A tremendous cast also includes West End star Gary Wilmot (Wicked, Me and My Girl, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang).

Directed by Jonathan Church, don’t miss this extraordinary drama.

A Man for All Seasons runs from 6 August to 6 September 2025 at the Harold Pinter Theatre, London.
