The Elite Cinema in Ashbourne presents National Theatre Live: "Nye" with Michael Sheen. This is a real live broadcast direct from the theatre in London.

Michael Sheen is Nye Bevan in this surreal and spectacular journey through the life and legacy of the man who transformed Britain’s welfare state. It’s written by Tim Price and directed by Rufus Norris.

From campaigning at the coalfield to leading the battle to create the NHS, Aneurin ‘Nye’ Bevan is often referred to as the politician with greatest influence on our country without ever being Prime Minister. Confronted with death, Nye’s deepest memories lead him on a mind-bending journey back through his life; from childhood to mining underground, Parliament and fights with Churchill in an epic Welsh fantasia.

Fabulous Dolby Atmos sound, a bar and a choice of comfy seats or sofas.

Wheelchair seating available - please contact reception in advance.
