Get ticket to Unicorn – Mike Bartlett’s new play at the Garrick Theatre, London
James Macdonald directs Nicola Walker (Unforgotten, The Split, Last Tango in Halifax), Stephen Mangan (Episodes, The Split) and Erin Doherty (The Crown) in Unicorn, a new play by Mike Bartlett (Doctor Foster, Life).
Explicit, funny and provocative, Unicorn dives into the tangled web of modern relationships and the secrets simmering beneath. When Polly and Nick’s lives intersect with the enigmatic Kate, their stable world tilts as old boundaries blur and new desires awaken.
Don’t miss this strictly limited West End season – book your tickets today.
Unicorn runs from 4 February 2025 until 26 April 2025 at the Garrick Theatre in London
Nick: Have you two kissed already?
Polly: No
Kate: Yes
Polly and Nick have it all. Happily married, two children, successful careers. And yet there’s something missing…something rare and unforeseen…waiting to add a much-needed sparkle…
