About Man and Boy
Jazz, Broadway and the Great Depression. In 1930s New York City, international financier Gregor Antonescu’s luck has finally run out. As news of a catastrophic business deal ripples across the world, he flees to the apartment of his estranged son Basil.
Truths are uncovered and relationships are tested as Gregor gets down to business to save his reputation and keep his empire from collapse.
In his National Theatre debut, director Anthony Lau (The Crucible) brings a sharp contemporary edge to Terence Rattigan’s tale of paternity and corruption, with Ben Daniels (The Normal Heart) and Laurie Kynaston (Long Day’s Journey Into Night) playing father and son.
