Available until: Livestreams at 7.30pm on Thursday 28^th and Friday 29^th January.

Lungs was first performed at the Old Vic in late 2019, starring Matt Smith and Claire Foy. They were set to reprise their roles in New York in March 2020. We all know why that didn’t happen. But in June, the production was performed live in an empty Old Vic to a virtual audience and now the Old Vic are giving us three more showings of this incredible play from the livestream recordings.

Available until: Can only be watched live. Final performance is on Saturday 19^th September, 7.30pm.

I’ll be honest. It took me a little while to get into Faith Healer. But that’s the way it is with some plays. They need a bit of investment. A bit of work on the part of the audience. It’s not like mindless telly where you can just let it wash over you. You need to stick with this one and you need to use your brain. It’s worth it. It really is.
