THE DONMAR WAREHOUSE ANNOUNCES NEW PROGRAMMING FOR 2026 SEASON
With the critically acclaimed When We Are Married running at the theatre and the world premiere of Anna Ziegler’s Evening All Afternoon currently in rehearsals, the Donmar’s Artistic Director Tim Sheader and Executive Director Henny Finch today announce further programming for the 2026 season including three world premieres and a major revival.
MASS
Evening All Afternoon will be followed by the world premiere of Mass, Fran Kranz’s debut play, adapted from his screenplay of the same name which premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. Carrie Cracknell, making her Donmar debut, directs Adeel Akhtar, Amari Bacchus, Monica Dolan, Paul Hilton, Lyndsey Marshal, Rochelle Rose and Susie Trayling in this profoundly moving new play.
The Guilty
Next, Russell Tovey returns to the Donmar to star in The Guilty – a new thriller by Chloë Moss, based on the films Den Skyldige and The Guilty, directed by Punchdrunk’s Felix Barrett.
A Month in the Country
The season continues with a major revival of A Month in the Country by Brian Friel after Ivan Turgenev directed by Lyndsey Turner.
A MONTH IN THE COUNTRY comes to the Donmar Warehouse in 2026
Ilford Boy
Finally, the season concludes with the world premiere of Danny Lee Wynter’s joyful family drama Ilford Boy, directed by Tim Sheader.
Also in 2026, a new production of The Fear of 13, in association with the Donmar Warehouse, opens on Broadway in March with Adrien Brody. The Fear of 13 had its world premiere at the Donmar in October 2024, directed by Justin Martin.
