Book now for the world premiere of Monument at the Royal Court, Rhys Warrington’s gripping new play about a Welsh farming community debating how to remember a tragedy, playing from 3 December 2026 to 23 January 2027.

Monument in London

With the eyes of the world watching, a Welsh farming community torn apart by tragedy gathers in the village hall to debate a planned memorial, and tonight, you’re in the room with them. Rhys Warrington’s Monument is a portrait of a close-knit community wrestling with its past, its future and the politics of remembrance, where, as the Royal Court puts it, every vote counts.

It’s a play about the people left behind, and as one line puts it: “…But it’s us that have to live with it.”

The play began life at the Royal Court’s Open Submissions Festival in 2025, and now makes its debut in the intimate Jerwood Theatre Upstairs as the final production of the theatre’s landmark 70th anniversary year.

The cast includes Crystal Condie (London Tide and Dear England at the National Theatre), Sharon Morgan, Lisa Palfrey, Ifan Huw Dafydd, Joshua Griffin, Anna Lundberg and Gwydion Rhys, with design by Cai Dyfan, lighting by Ryan Joseph Stafford and sound design and composition by Nicola T. Chang.
