Eline Arbo’s five-star The Years continues its captivating West End run.
Based on Nobel Prize winner Annie Ernaux’s groundbreaking masterpiece, The Years is an unapologetic portrait of a woman shaped by her rapidly-changing world.
Writer, mother, student, activist, wife, daughter, lover, grandmother… each vivid version of Annie is told through a series of snapshots. Weaving together memory and history, an ordinary life is marked by a changing body and a changing society, revealing a remarkable picture of womanhood over the 20th century. With so much emotional depth, surprise and theatrical virtuosity The Years moves you in ways theatre often tries to but rarely achieves.
Deborah Findlay, Gina McKee, Tuppence Middleton, Anjli Mohindra and Harmony Rose-Bremner deliver an acting masterclass.
Don’t miss your chance to see this provocative, visceral production, playing for a strictly limited run at Harold Pinter Theatre until 19 April.
