The writer behind Cock, Bull and King Charles III, Mike Barlett returns to the West End with this brand-new play, a provocative exploration of polyamory, starring Stephen Mangan (The Split, Episodes), Nicola Walker (The Split, Spooks) as a married couple looking to reignite that all important spark when they invite a third, Erin Doherty (The Crown) into their lives and their bed.
Directed by James Macdonald (Waiting For Godot), this humourous, explicit, and strictly adult portrait of a modern marriage contains scenes of a sexual nature that some may find intriguing.

A Delightful Blend of Humour and Heart
Mike Bartlett’s new play, Unicorn, at the Garrick Theatre, and is an absolute treat. The onstage chemistry between Nicola Walker and Stephen Mangan as Polly and Nick is off the charts, while Erin Doherty’s take on Kate brings a fresh, fun energy to the mix. The script is a brilliant blend of clever jokes and thoughtful insights into modern relationships—causing you to laugh one moment and nod in agreement the next. The first act really sets the scene, and the second act keeps up the high spirits without missing a beat. All in all, Unicorn is a must-see show that perfectly mixes humor with a touch of smart, provocative themes. Enjoy the magic! ... Read more
