Michael Sheen is Nye Bevan in an epic Welsh fantasia, following one man’s dream of the NHS. Directed by Rufus Norris (Small Island), Nye will be an exiting milestone as The National Theatre’s 100th play in cinemas.

From campaigning at the coalfield to leading the battle to create the NHS, Aneurin ‘Nye’ Bevan is often referred to as the politician with the 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. This surreal spectacular journey tells the story of the life and legacy of the man who transformed the welfare state.
