AboutVenueTickets
Why watch Closer?
Closer London play tickets are available now. Closer stands as an iconic cult classic that squeezed out a range of emotions owing to its passionate, yet humorous display of the chemistry between four strangers. Patrick Marber in his very second play made a deep impact with Closer, which first premiered in the Royal National Theatre, London in 1997.
BAFTA nominee Ella Hunt along with Sam Troughton, Nina White, and Jack Farthing play the four friends, while the show also has an extremely incredible creative team that sees Movement Direction from Malik Nashad Sharpe and musical direction by Arun Ghosh.
The Olivier Award-winning director Clare Lizzimore has directed this radical new production. The universal appeal of the Closer London Play not only saw it being played in more than 200 cities but even had a film adaption in 2004 that saw Jude Law, Clive Owen, Natalie Portman, and Julia Roberts, and even bagged 2 Golden Globe Awards.
Storyline
Although first written and premiered 25 years ago, the themes and the experimental storyline are very much relevant and resonant to the world even today. Exploring delicate themes of identity, sex, and a unique take on relationships, the show leaves a mark that's gentle and indelible.
The tale of how the London strangers fall in love, their friendship, intimacy, and the unexpected partner-swapping is one not to miss. Diminishing love, leading to heartbreaks makes it a poignant story of human relationships. Book Closer London play tickets and get ready for an upheaval of emotions.
