National Theatre Live: NATION at the Coolidge

The Coolidge Corner Theatre will present a live satellite broadcast of the London National Theatre’s production of NATION, an exhilarating adventure tale of survival and self-discovery based on the best-selling book by Terry Pratchett, on Saturday, January 30 at 2 pm. An encore presentation (pre-recorded) follows on Monday, February 15 at 2 pm. Both broadcasts will be shown in stunning high definition on the Coolidge's giant screen.

NATION takes place in a parallel world, 1860. Two teenagers are thrown together by a tsunami that has destroyed Mau’s village and left Daphne shipwrecked on his South Pacific island, thousands of miles from her aristocratic home in Victorian
England. Neither speaks the other’s language; somehow they must learn to survive. Together they come of age as they discard old doctrine to forge a new Nation.

Bravura performances, live music, and thrilling dance combine to bring the spectacular and surprising world of Terry Pratchett's NATION to life.
