Theatrical adaptation of Academy Award-nominated film Cold War (until 27th Jan)

A compelling story of passion, redemption, and the journey to be free

30th November 2023 to 27th January 2024, Almeida Theatre, London

Poland, 1949. Zula is bold and brilliant, a singer who ignites the stage. Wiktor is withdrawn and damaged, a composer longing to write. Irresistibly drawn to each other, they dream of escape. But in communist-controlled Poland that can be a dangerous thing.

Based on Paweł Pawlikowski’s Academy Award-nominated film, Cold War is an epic love story spanning the decades and breadth of Europe at its most divided.

Featuring traditional Polish songs, stirring choral arrangements, alongside music from Grammy Award-winner Elvis Costello, Conor McPherson‘s (Girl from the North CountryThe Weir) adaptation of Cold War is a compelling story of passion, redemption, and the journey to be free.

Tickets can be purchased here.
