It’s cheaper than flying to London six times a year…
Twelfth Night, National Theatre of London
A few years, back owners Jeff and Steve wanted to get season tickets to the National Theatre and fly to London to see their newest shows.
But that’s insanity. And expensive. So they decided to bring the National Theatre to Charleston.
Broadcast live from the West End
They invested in a state of the art sound system and digital projector. They secured exclusive rights to NTLIVE broadcasts. And they made sure there was plenty of Dill Popcorn standing by.
Then, for just a few nights a year, something special happens. People from all over Charleston come out of the woodwork, sit together and screen a live broadcast of a highly anticipated new production direct from London.
Andrew Garfield in Angels in America, an NTLive broadcast
We like to say it’s kind of like “movie night.” Popcorn and wine are involved. You’re very close to the performance in our very intimate venue.
No, Andrew Garfield isn’t actually in the same room with you. Ralph Fiennes will not be there in person...
But it’s the next best thing. And that’s more than enough- better actually. Because of the size of the image and the proximity of our seats to the screen (we only seat 50!), it’s like having a front row seat to the most celebrated productions in the world.
Many of our younger crowd prefer to be super close in the stage seats!
Mingle with our actors. Meet new friends. It’s always a very low key Sunday night in our vibrant city.
Hope to see you there! Here’s a listing of upcoming broadcasts!
