IN REHEARSAL AT THE NATIONAL THEATRE

England's Royal National Theatre celebrates its 25th Anniversary on the South Bank this year. During this time over 400 productions have been seen in rehearsal through the eyes of some of the world's leading photographers. The 200-plus black and white photographs in this book capture the essence of theatre-in-progress, actors and directors at work behind closed doors, and shows the development of some of the great names of our stage.
