Celebrate the 100th NT Live production to come to the big screen as be one of the first to experience the acclaimed stage play filmed live on stage at the National Theatre starring Michael Sheen. This exhilarating stage play offers audiences a glimpse into surreal and spectacular journey of Nye Bevan, exploring his life and his legacy as the creator of the NHS.

From campaigning at the coalfield to leading the battle to create the National Health Service, Aneurin ‘Nye’ Bevan is often referred to as the politician with greatest influence over the UK without ever being Prime Minister. Confronted with death, Aneurin ‘Nye’ Bevan’s deepest memories lead him on a mind-bending journey back through his life; from childhood to mining underground, Parliament and fights with Churchill. Written by Tim Price and directed by Rufus Norris (Small Island), this epic new Welsh fantasia will be filmed live at the National Theatre in London.
