Oliver Cotton's THE SCORE is transferring to London's Theatre Royal Haymarket after a successful run at Theatre Royal Bath.

Spring 1747. Potsdam, Prussia. Johann Sebastian Bach reluctantly visits the court of Frederick II, Europe’s most ambitious and dangerous leader.

The two men could hardly be more different. As the Age of Enlightenment dawns, they stand in opposite camps. Bach is deeply religious, Frederick is an atheist. Bach loathes war, Frederick revels in it. Bach studies scripture, Frederick reads military history. Frederick remains in awe of Bach’s genius however and has mischievously prepared a musical conundrum that he hopes will baffle the composer and amuse his court.

Legendary stage and screen actor Brian Cox (HBO’s multi-award winning Succession) plays Johann Sebastian Bach, joined by a stellar cast including Nicole Ansari-Cox (Deadwood, Succession), Matthew Burns (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button), Dona Croll (The Doctor, The American Plan), RSC regular Peter de Jersey and Stephen Hagan (You, The Larkins).

Brian Cox's glittering career has spanned more than sixty years, garnering numerous awards, working with the most esteemed theatre companies and renowned Hollywood and TV directors.

THE SCORE is directed by former artistic director of the National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company Trevor Nunn, who's multi-award-winning repertoire ranges from Les Miserables to The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby.
