Nina Raine’s critically-acclaimed ‘modern classic’ (The Times) Consent, makes a timely and triumphant transfer to the Harold Pinter Theatre for a strictly limited season. 

What is justice, what is vengeance, and which is right? Friends take opposing briefs in a contentious legal case. The key witness is a woman whose life seems a world away from theirs. At home, their own lives begin to unravel as every version of the truth is challenged.

Directed by Roger Michell, Consent takes a searing look at the law whilst putting modern relationships into the dock in ‘a play you’ll be talking about for a long time to come’ (Radio Times). 

★★★★★ "A Modern Classic...a hotly topical play with as much human life as we've seen on the West End stage for a long time". - The Times

★★★★★ “Essential viewing. This is a play you’ll be talking about for a long time to come.” - Radio Times

★★★★ “Riveting account of imploding metropolitan lives. This piece couldn’t be more timely” - Telegraph 

★★★★ “This bracingly clever, bleakly funny play offers no easy answers to any of its questions: what is justice, what is vengeance, and which is right?” - Guardian

★★★★ “A vivid, thoughtful and immensely resonant play” - Financial Times

    This was absolutely brilliant; I'm still thinking about the play 2 days on. It's by far the best play i've seen in years and i can genuinely say that i was disappointed when it came to an end. lots of laughter and tears
