Nadia Fall Unveils Bold Inaugural Season at London’s Young Vic
Young Vic's newly-appointed artistic director and CEO Nadia Fall has announced her inaugural season for the London theater.
Fall will personally direct the season opener, Joe Orton’s queer cult classic “Entertaining Mr Sloane,” starring Tamzin Outhwaite (“Abigail’s Party”) and Daniel Cerqueira (“A Gentleman in Moscow”). In December, The Maria will host “Museum of Austerity,” a mixed reality installation from theater/XR director Sacha Wares and Disability News Service editor John Pring, examining the human impact when “state safety nets fail.” The production, running Dec. 5 through Jan. 16, 2026, is an ETT, Trial and Error Studio, and National Theatre co-production presented in association with the Young Vic and supported by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. The season concludes with the world premiere of Sophie Swithinbank’s “Sting,” directed by Nancy Medina, which explores systemic injustice in institutions “sworn to protect us.” The production, running June 18 through July 18, is described by Fall as “a riveting new play” that exposes “disturbing misogyny within the police force.”
