The Standard Of Living

About The Standard of Living

At the Theatre Royal Haymarket, The Standard of Living is a world-premiere play by James Graham, directed by Nicholas Hytner, with a strictly limited 12-week West End run.

The play follows economist John Maynard Keynes between Whitehall and a circle of artists, writers and lovers, as markets crash and Britain moves towards chaos. Music, dance, desire and debate run through the production as it asks what a good life might be.

It stars Rory Kinnear and Natalia Osipova, with Osipova making her West End debut.

Key facts: Opens at the Theatre Royal Haymarket from 21 September. Suggested for ages 12+.
