This showcased event has concluded.
Part biography, part spy drama, part absurdist nightmare, A Very Expensive Poison looks at the true story of the assassination by the poison of Alexander Litvinenko by the Russian secret service in London in 2006.
In the strange convergence of global politics and radioactive villainy, a man pays with his life.
At this time of unnerving global crises and with the rumblings of a new Cold War, A Very Expensive Poison sends us careening through the shadowy world of international espionage from Moscow to Mayfair. In the strange convergence of global politics and radioactive villainy, a man pays with his life.
The play by Lucy Prebble (co-executive Producer and writer of Succession, Enron, and The Effect) premiered at London's The Old Vic in 2019 and is an astute mix of real events, vaudeville and thriller. In this production by Belvoir Resident Director Hannah Goodwin, guests are served layer on layer of Putinesque post-truth theatricality.
