Jessie Buckley is among the stars set to appear at London’s Royal Court Theatre as the venue announced the first part of its 2027 slate and teased its 2028 plans.<\/p>\n
Oscar winner Buckley will star in Nina Segal’s play Afterbirth, which has been described as a “funny, furious, and unflinching” portrayal of life after birth and parenthood.<\/p>\n
“The baby is fine. The birth was fine. Annie is fine. She’s fine. She’s really, really, really fine,” says the Royal Court Theatre’s synopsis.<\/p>\n
The theatre also shared a teaser trailer featuring Hamnet star Buckley.<\/p>\n
\n
Afterbirth, directed by Maria Aberg, will have its world premiere on 15 January 2028 and will run until 26 February that year. <\/p>\n
Tickets will go on sale on the Royal Court Theatre website on Wednesday, 4 November at midday. <\/p>\n
Killarney-born Buckley last appeared on the London stage in the revival of Cabaret at the Playhouse Theatre in 2022, winning a Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical.<\/p>\n
