The Knot - Old Red Lion Theatre

Dan Daniel's The Knot found favour with audiences and critics alike when it ran at the Tristan Bates Theatre.

Now it's moving on to Islington's Old Red Lion theatre for a further run from 18 June to 6 July 2019, with press night on June 20.

The Knot is performed by Caolán Dundon and Aiyaz Ahmedand, and is based on the lived experiences of the actors themselves.

The play is an intimate, personal and timely show that addresses themes of masculinity, culture clash and how the government can become too involved in our romantic lives.
