This October sees the opening of the Bridge Theatre, home of the new London Theatre Company, co-founded by Nicholas Hytner and Nick Starr in a partnership cemented over 12 years at the National Theatre.

The Bridge is London’s first new commercial theatre space in over 80 years and will house an audience of 900 in an adaptable space that Starr says will be ‘particularly focused on new works’.

The debut production is dark comedy Young Marx, starring Rory Kinnear, which will run from 18 October to 31 December.
