After its sell-out run at London’s Almeida Theatre, National Theatre Live brings Golden Boy to cinemas worldwide from 5 November 2026.

Josh O’Connor (The Crown; Challengers) leads the cast in this searing revival of Clifford Odets’ knockout American classic.

When Old Major shares his dream of a Golden Future Time, the animals of Manor Farm dare to believe that another world is possible. Change is in the air. Hooves thunder. Gates are broken. The old order falls, and the farm is theirs at last. But promises can be rebranded, rules can be rewritten, and before long, the pigs are promising to make Animal Farm great again.

When Teseo goes to meet his fate in the jaws of the monstrous Minotaur, little does he know that his greatest test is still to come, not finding his way through the labyrinth, but finding his way through a chaotic web of romantic entanglements, jealousy, and court intrigue. Pursued by Princesses Fedra and Ariadna, our divine hero finds himself lost in a love triangle that somehow keeps adding sides as masked balls and secret nightime trysts add yet more turns and dead ends. Meanwhile, mad King Minos’s insatiable desire for revenge threatens to turn this rom-com into a tragedy…
