Why Watch Farm Hall?
It's the classic case of history meets drama and is based on true events. Farm Hall allows you to explore an intriguing slice of World War II from your theatre seat.
Farm Hall features a stellar cast including David Yelland (The Crown), portraying the conflicted minds of Germany’s top nuclear scientists with gripping performances.
Written by newcomer Katherine Moar, who has been nominated by the Offies for Most Promising Debut Playwright for her outstanding work!
The show's setting in a stately English home, filled with paradoxical elements like censored newspapers and a broken piano, adds an alluring surrealism to the intense drama.
Don't miss the chance to get your Farm Hall play tickets for a journey into a secluded world of war, science, and morality.
Farm Hall is a must-see for history buffs, theatre enthusiasts, and anyone intrigued by the moral conundrums of war and scientific discovery. Offering a distinctive look into the lives of six captive German scientists during World War II, the play recounts a gripping narrative of seclusion, disbelief, and existential crisis. The allure of the production lies in its sophisticated storytelling by debutant writer Katherine Moar, and intricate character development. It also addresses the dramatic tension that arises from the dichotomy of the scientists' secluded world and the global war. It might interest you to know that BBC previously adapted the story of Farm Hall for a Horizon drama-documentary titled "Hitler's Bomb." Farm Hall play tickets are your pass to witness this compelling narrative unfold on stage.
Storyline
In the summer of 1945, at Farm Hall, a stately home outside Cambridge, six of Germany's top nuclear scientists find themselves detained by the Allies after Hitler's demise. Cut off from the outside world, they pass time with censored newspapers, a broken piano, and Noël Coward's "Blithe Spirit". Their seclusion is shattered when they discover America's successful creation of an atomic bomb and Germany's defeat. Unbeknownst to them, every word is being secretly recorded as Farm Hall is bugged. This compelling narrative is your cue to secure tickets for the Farm Hall play.
