I just thought I should advise people that this play was not at The National Theatre, it was performed at The Young Vic. The National Theatre produces the live stream videos of lots of shows, but they are not always on stage at The National. It is rather confusing, but do please note that each live stream video shown in your cinemas is from many different theatres. I think it is difficult if you then want to see a play/opera live, as it is not made clear always where the live performances are, particular for visitors to London, who are not familiar with the amazing choice of theatre all round London.

I was referring to the production of Streetcar Named Desire, with Gillian Anderson playing Blanche Dubois. Someone sent a note to Trip Advisor extolling the virtues of this National Theatre production, having seen the live stream video link. I just wanted people to know that the actual live performances took place at The Young Vic.
Hello! I am trying to buy the tickets to the backstage tour from overseas but I was wondering if NT sends us a confirmation email and then we show that to when we get to the ticket area or if I need to pick up the tickets to for the backstage tour somewhere else? Thank you very much in advance for your help!
