NT Live: Nye

Screening of the play featuring Michael Sheen playing Nye Bevan in a surreal and spectacular journey through the life and legacy of the man who transformed Britain’s welfare state and created the NHS.

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, this epic new Welsh fantasia will be broadcast live from the National Theatre.
