Rotterdam to return to London stage following Olivier Award win

Jon Brittain’s bittersweet comedy will play a month run at the Arts Theatre

Jon Brittain's Olivier Award-winning play, Rotterdam, will return to London following its critically acclaimed run at Trafalgar Studios last year.

Donnacadh O’Briain‘s production which won the Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in an Affiliate Theatre this year, will play the Arts Theatre from 21 June to 15 July.

Anna Martine Freeman (The Nether), Alice McCarthy (Boris: World King), Ed Eales-White (Strap In – It’s Clever Peter) and Ellie Morris (Peter Pan Goes Wrong) all reprise their roles.

Brittain's play, which premiered at Theatre503 in 2015 before transferring to Trafalgar Studios last year, is a bittersweet comedy about gender and sexuality.

In his review for WhatsOnStage, Matt Trueman praised the productions 'committed, sparky and engaging cast'.

Rotterdam runs at the Arts Theatre from 22 June to 15 July, with a preview on 21 June.
