Part One of a two-part story
Lyra and Will find themselves embarked on a thrilling journey through worlds familiar and unknown. Their great quest demands a savage struggle against the most dangerous of enemies. They encounter fantastical creatures in parallel worlds – rebellious angels, soul-eating spectres, child-catching gobblers and the armoured bears and witch-clans of the Arctic.
Finally, before reaching, perhaps, the Republic of Heaven, they must visit the Land of the Dead…
Adapted from Philip Pullman’s three novels into two full-length plays, Nicholas Wright’s stage version of His Dark Materials was a triumph when it premiered at the National Theatre in 2004.
This new production directed by Rachel Kavanaugh promises to be a truly exciting theatrical event. Both parts can be enjoyed alone or together on the same day.
