Internationaal Theater Amsterdam's new Artistic Director Eline Arbo will return to direct her five-star, sold out adaptation of Nobel Prize winner Annie Ernaux's critically acclaimed semi-autobiographical novel The Years. Having run to critical acclaim at the Internationaal Theater Amsterdam and at the Almeida Theatre from August - September 2024, it will now transfer to the Harold Pinter Theatre from 24 January – 19 April 2025.

Deborah Findlay, Romola Garai*, Gina McKee, Anjli Mohindra and Harmony Rose-Bremner reprise their performances playing one woman in this mesmerizing, personal and political story, set against the backdrop of our rapidly changing world.
