National Theatre Live: The Misanthrope

Alice, a celebrated novelist with little patience for society’s polished ideas about kindness and respect, refuses to keep her opinions to herself. As she openly challenges popular beliefs and speaks up for controversial causes, she finds herself increasingly isolated from her colleagues and facing tension in her personal life. With criticism and backlash mounting, Alice must confront the consequences of refusing to stay silent. Sandra Oh stars as the outspoken writer in Martin Crimp’s sharp and provocative reimagining of Molière’s classic comedy, directed by National Theatre Director Indhu Rubasingham.
