A documentary play centered on the trial of the men who drugged and raped Gisèle Pelicot is set to be performed by the Young Vic at London’s County Hall on 30 November 2026. The production, directed by Milo Rau and created with Servane Dècle, has been described by Young Vic artistic director Nadia Fall as a work that focuses on the facts of the case rather than traditional theatrical staging. The cast for the performance includes Adjoa Andoh, Rosie Jones, and Olivia Williams. While the live performances at County Hall have sold out, the play will be available to audiences via a full livestream. The work is part of a broader trend of theatre productions being made available for digital viewing this month, alongside other notable releases such as the Old Vic’s revival of Tom Stoppard’s Arcadia, which arrives on the NT at Home platform on 26 November 2026.
