Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Donmar's in-the-round staging means no actor is ever more than feet from the audience—Tennant reportedly made eye contact with specific viewers during 'Tomorrow and tomorrow.'
Cush Jumbo and Tennant had never shared a stage before this; their chemistry was forged in the compressed 10-week rehearsal period, with Jumbo reportedly insisting on doing the sleepwalking scene barefoot on cold concrete.
