Full season on sale now

Each of the four shows across January – April are diverse and surprising, showcasing brilliant new work from across the independent UK theatre scene. From award-winning ensemble physical theatre to celebrated performance art through satire and comic storytelling - audiencesâ€¯willâ€¯discover work from the global and satirical to the intensely political and personal.â€¯

The season begins with multi award-winning migrant-led international theatre makersâ€¯Ephemeral Ensemble’s REWIND, exploring Latin American refugee stories and making its London debut after a hugely successful Edinburgh Festival Fringe run and international tour.â€¯

Disability satire and 2023 Untapped Award winnerâ€¯IT'S A MOTHERF**KING PLEASURE byâ€¯Flawboredâ€¯returns to NDT in February following its Edinburgh Festival Fringe run and New York debut, and ahead of national tour.

ELOINA’s body-positive and labia-loving sensationâ€¯HIGH STEAKS then joins the season after sell-out dates across the UK and critical acclaim. Performed in the nude with live meat fried on stage, it’s a celebratory, revelatory dismantling of taboos.

The season then closes withâ€¯Katie Arnstein's THE LONG RUN,â€¯in association with Grace Dickson Productions. A captivating, joyful comedy about love, cancer and really long journeys, this award winning production is directed by incoming New Diorama Artistic Directorâ€¯Bec Martin.

Bec Martinâ€¯ said:â€¯‘This is an incredible and unique opportunity to collaborate with David, an artistic director I admire so much, to programme artists we have both supported and loved. It’s a good bye, a hello, and a statement of intent that all the wonderful, collaborative artistic practice and support of the past isn't going anywhere.'

David Byrne said: ‘The emotion of leaving New Diorama is cushioned by leaving the organisation I love in the confident hands of Bec. This season allows work we both love to sit together in conversation. It’s a fitting end of my time, when collaborative practise has been at the centre of the conversation, that this season is co-programmed and co-presented. I’m going to be back in the audience for every one of these brilliant shows.’â€¯
