"A poem to love and its madness" – Tristan & Yseult Returns

Emma’s iconic production of Tristan & Yseult returns in 2026 – nearly a decade since it was last seen in the UK.

Cups of Coffee

It's been over 20 years since Tristan & Yseult first burst onto the stage, and nearly 10 since its last unforgettable run. Now, by overwhelming demand, the show that redefined theatrical romance is back as part of our ground-breaking Director's Cut season at Theatre Royal Bath.

Here's what Lyn Gardner said in her ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review when the show first opened at the NT in April 2005.

"The production is thrillingly playful in every respect. It is childlike but never childish, full of music from a terrific band and it echoes with hoots of laughter and the whispered memory of despair. It embraces you so warmly that you feel as if you have been physically hugged. I loved it with a passion."

The show will open in Bath before touring the UK, with venues and dates announced early next year.
