Following his triumphant performance as Othello, Lenny Henry returns to the London stage in August Wilson's award winning Fences.

Troy Maxson was once a gifted athlete but was denied his shot at the big time and now struggles through daily life in Pittsburgh. Resentful of a world he believes has denied him chances at every turn, he takes out his anger on his loyal wife and sports-obsessed son.

Fences is one of the great American dramas of the 20th century, and winner of the New York Drama Critics' Award, two Tony Awards and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Set between the Korean and Vietnam wars, it is the story of a family trying to hold itself together and of what happens when a strong man is robbed of his dreams - a universal story which will touch a chord in every heart.

PRIVATE LIVES
Gielgud Theatre
Limited Season from 22 June
www.privateliveswestend.com

Elyot (Toby Stephens) and Amanda (Anna Chancellor) are glamorous, rich, reckless . . .  and divorced. Five years later, their love for one another is unexpectedly rekindled when they take adjoining suites of a French hotel while honeymooning with their new spouses, Victor (Anthony Calf) and Sibyl (Anna-Louise Plowman). This chance encounter instantly reignites their passion, and they fling themselves headlong into a whirlwind of love and lust once more, without a thought for partners present or turbulent past.

Following a sell-out run at Chichester Festival Theatre, this much-anticipated transfer is set to blaze across the West End stage this summer in an explosive production that proves Noël Coward still has the power to thrill, provoke and delight.
