The Doctor Tour starring Juliet Stephenson will take in Richmond Theatre, Bath Theatre Royal and Brighton Theatre Royal prior to its West End season at the Duke of York’s Theatre.
Updated 5 April 2022
We have received news that the eagerly awaited production of The Doctor starring Juliet Stevenson, previously postponed due to the pandemic has at last been rescheduled. The schedule for The Doctor tour is shown below.
Olivier Award winner Juliet Stevenson delivers “one of the performances of the year” (Evening Standard) in the West End and pre-West End tour transfer of Robert Icke’s sold-out, five-star Almeida Theatre production – The Doctor. Juliet won a Critics’ Circle Award and was nominated for an Evening Standard Award for Best Actress for her performance in this role.
On an ordinary day, at a private hospital, a young woman fights for her life. A priest arrives to save her soul. Her doctor refuses him entry.
In a divisive time, in a divided nation, a society takes sides.
The latest smash-hit by “Britain’s best director” (The Telegraph) is a “provocative, wonderfully upsetting” (The Independent) whirlwind of gender, race and identity politics, “one of the peaks of the theatrical year” (The Guardian) and a “devastating play for today” (Financial Times).
The Doctor, by Robert Icke, very freely adapted from Professor Bernhardi by Arthur Schnitzler, has been critically lauded since it opened at the Almeida in August 2019. The play headlined the Adelaide Festival in 2020, before it was due to transfer to the West End. This was delayed until 2022 due to the outbreak of Covid-19.
Please note: This show includes the discussion of suicide and the description of suicide methods.
