The Guilty London Tickets

Based on the Danish film, Den Skyldige, written by Gustav Möller and Emil Nygaard Albertsen. After a hit sold-out run at the Donmar Warehouse, Russell Tovey (The History Boys, Angels in America, Being Human) returns to the role of the troubled police officer, Joe. See this ‘white-knuckle ride’ (The Guardian) at the Harold Pinter Theatre for a strictly limited run. 

What is The Guilty about?

Joe, stuck on the mundane desk duties of a police officer, takes a desperate 999 call from Emily. He scrambles to decode fragmented clues from a woman in danger, a heart-stopping thriller unfolds. A night of unsettling twists, it becomes apparent that nothing is quite as it seems.
