Albion – A moving and beautiful new play by Mike Bartlett (King Charles III, Doctor Foster) about gardens, grief, creativity, Brexit and what it means to be British. Victoria Hamilton gives a powerhouse performance in a play that packs in a lot of drama.
Here’s what people on social thought of this moving and spikey Almeida production:
#Albion at @AlmeidaTheatre is clever, funny & emotional. But what I really can’t stop thinking about are those incredible scene transitions.

#Albion is very funny, poignant of our time. Victoria Hamilton character is a hoot, based on Jo Malone? @AlmeidaTheatre
