It was the best of times.
It was the worst of times.
In 1770s Paris, revolution is stirring. Sydney Carton is a brilliant yet cynical barrister from England. Charles Darnay is the rebel child of French aristocrats. When they both fall for charming émigré Lucie Manette, a chain of events is set in motion which will endanger everyone.
As the Reign of Terror rages on the streets of Paris, for some, love is a lifeline; for others, a sentence to the guillotine.
Adapted by Terence Rattigan (The Winslow Boy, The Deep Blue Sea) and John Gielgud, based on one of the best-selling novels of all time, this epic story of love, sacrifice and redemption asks: is there any price too great to pay for love?
A Tale of Two Cities is a Marlowe Theatre production, directed by Michael Fentiman (Amélie, RSC’s Titus Andronicus, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Loot).
Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England
