September 6 – The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Mark Haddon’s beloved and award winning novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, has been adapted for the stage by Simon Stephens.

The cast includes Niamh Cusack, Nick Sidi, Una Stubbs, Luke Treadaway, Nicola Walker.
October 11 – The Last of the Haussmans
Stephen Beresford’s new play, The Last of the Haussmans, directed by Howard Davies, examines the fate of the 1960s revolutionary generation and offers a funny, touching and at times savage portrait of a family full of longing that’s losing its grip. The cast includes Rory Kinnear, Matthew Marsh, Helen McCrory and Julie Walters.
November 1 – Timon of Athens
Simon Russell Beale takes the title role in Timon of Athens, Shakespeare’s strange fable of conspicuous consumption, debt and ruin, written in collaboration with Thomas Middleton, directed by Nicholas Hytner.
“We look forward to bringing our guests some of the of the best live theatre performances anywhere in the world,” says Cineplex Entertainment Vice-President Pat Marshall. “If you can’t be there in person, this is the very best way to experience the thrill of live theatre.”
