National Theatre Live's fourth season continues with The Last of the Haussmans, directed by Howard Davies.

The darkly comic drama is completely sold out at The National Theatre.

Watch a trailer for the show below!

Anarchic and feisty but growing old, high society drop-out Judy Haussman remains in spirit with the Ashrams of the 1960s while holding court in her dilapidated Art Deco house on the Devon coast. After an operation, she's joined by wayward offspring Nick and Libby, sharp-eyed granddaughter Summer, local doctor Peter, and Daniel, a troubled teenager who makes use of the family's crumbling swimming pool. Together they share a few sweltering months in this chaotic world of all-day drinking, infatuations, long-held resentments, free love and failure.

National Theatre Live is an initiative by the UK's National Theatre to broadcast live performances onto cinema screens around the world.
