The Pitman Painters
By Lee Hall
Directed by Max Roberts
with Christopher Connel, Michael Hodgson, Ian Kelly, Brian Lonsdale, Lisa McGrillis, Deka Walmsley, David Whitaker, Phillippa Wilson

The Pitmen Painters is a humorous, deeply moving and timely look at art, class, and politics. In 1934, a group of Ashington miners hired a professor to teach an art appreciation evening class. Rapidly abandoning theory in favor of practice, the pitmen began to paint. Within a few years the most avant-garde artists became their friends and their work was acquired by prestigious collections; but every day they worked, as before, down the mine. The Pitmen Painters was named Best Play at the 2008 Evening Standard Awards.

Equivocation
By Bill Cain
Directed by Garry Hynes
with Remy Auberjonois, Michael Countryman, David Furr, John Pankow, Charlotte Parry, David Pittu

Bill Cain's new play set in 1606 England begins when King James’ right hand man commissions William Shakespeare to write a new play about the Gunpowder Plot, a recent failed attempt to blow up Parliament and the Monarchy. Equivocation is a bold new look at the greatest playwright ever in a drama whose contemporary parallels are unmistakable and whose laughter is abundant – a work of startling revelations and vibrant theatricality. Tony Award winner Garry Hynes returns to MTC following her acclaimed production of Translations.

That Face
By Polly Stenham
Directed by Sarah Benson

That Face is a powerful and darkly comic look at an affluent family in freefall. Mia has been suspended from boarding school. Her brother, Henry, has dropped out altogether. And Martha, their mum, manipulates them all. Money can no longer fix their problems -- now it's up to them. This Olivier Award-nominated play from Britain’s fastest-rising young playwright premieres in New York with the director of last season's acclaimed Blasted.
