Billie Piper’s (Penny Dreadful, Great Britain)
Olivier Award-winning performance in Yerma is
broadcast live to cinemas.
A young woman is driven to the unthinkable by
her desperate desire to have a baby, in Simon
Stone’s radical production of Lorca’s achingly
powerful masterpiece. Set in contemporary
London, Piper’s portrayal of a woman in her
thirties struggling to conceive builds with
elemental force to a staggering, shocking climax.
The unmissable theatre phenomenon is sold-out
at the Young Vic and critics call it ‘shatteringly
powerful’ (Independent) and ‘an extraordinary
theatrical triumph’ (The Times).
