Mike Bartlett's explicit, funny and provocative new play starring Nicola Walker, Stephen Mangan and Erin Doherty.
Mike Bartlett’s new play Unicorn, directed by James Macdonald, starring Nicola Walker (Polly), Stephen Mangan (Nick), and Erin Doherty (Kate). Unicorn will debut at the Garrick Theatre in the West End from 4 February for strictly limited run until 26 April 2025, with a press night Thursday 13 February 2025.
“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…
Nicola Walker said, “Mike Bartlett’s Unicorn is that rare beast you long to see, it’s grown-up and unusual and very, very funny.” Unicorn sees James Macdonald, Mike Bartlett and Kate Horton reuniting following their collaboration on the original production of Cock at Royal Court in 2009.
Joining director James Macdonald is designer Miriam Buether, lighting designer Natasha Chivers and sound designer Ian Dickinson. Unicorn is produced by Kate Horton Productions and Nica Burns, Norel Productions and Tilted, in association with Rupert Gavin and Mallory Factor.
There will be 10,000 tickets for under £30 available across the run. Tickets are on sale now at: www.nimaxtheatres.com and www.unicorntheplay.co.uk.
