✦ Synopsis

A double bill by Terence Rattigan, featuring two plays of striking contrast that display his astonishing range as a writer.

A rarely seen comic gem, Harlequinade follows a classical theatre company whose intrigues and dalliances are revealed with increasingly calamitous consequences in an affectionate celebration of the lunatic art of putting on a play.

A powerfully atmospheric one-woman play, All On Her Own tells the story of Rosemary who, alone at midnight in London, has a secret burden to share that is both heartbreaking and sinister.

Harlequinade & All On Her Own was performed as part of the Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company's Plays at the Garrick Season in 2015, starring Zoë Wanamaker and Kenneth Branagh, and co-directed by Branagh and Rob Ashford.

This official tie-in edition features both plays, plus exclusive additional content.
