Taken at Midnight

Following critical acclaim and a sold-out season at Chichester Festival Theatre, Jonathan Church’s world premiere production of Taken At Midnight by Mark Hayhurst will transfer to Theatre Royal Haymarket from 15th January.

Penelope Wilton originates the role of Irmgard, the mother of celebrated lawyer Hans Litten who, in 1931, puts Hitler on the witness stand and wins. In 1933 when Hitler becomes Reich Chancellor, Litten suffers devastating consequences.

The unquestionable love of a mother for her son and her courageous efforts to help him are at the heart of this compelling new play. Fearless and indomitable she confronts his captors at enormous personal risk to fight for his release against the seemingly impossible might of the Nazi regime.

Featuring a fine company of actors, Taken at Midnight will open in the west end in January 2015 and will run for only 8 weeks. This is a rare opportunity to see one of the UK’s most acclaimed stage actresses in a gripping and important new play. Don’t miss it – book now.
