Robin looks for sanctuary in the remote family homestead and in his music in Polly Stenham's new play No Quarter which opens in the Jerwood Theatre upstairs at Royal Court Theatre on 11th January 2013. But everything around him is crumbling and he wonders what the cost will be to save it all. Tom Sturridge, Maureen Beattie and Zoe Boyle (who played Lavinia Swire in TV drama Downton Abbey), appear in the drama which is directed by Jeremy Herrin. It will be a homecoming of sorts for playwright Polly Stenham whose debut play That Face, written when she was just 19, received its world premiere in 2007 at the Royal Court. Its subsequent transfer to the Duke of York's made her the youngest playwright on the West End since Christopher Hampton in 1966.
About Royal Court Theatre
Dedicated to putting on new work and discovering new voices, the Royal Court Theatre was seen as 'the most important theatre in Europe' by no less an authority than The New York Times. In 1956 it staged John Osborne's Look Back in Anger - a landmark in modern British drama - and the Sloane Square theatre has continued to produce work of an equally high standard, with numerous productions making a successful transition to the West End.
