Hanya Yanagihara and the company of #ALittleLifePlay join arts correspondent Rebecca Jones to celebrate the publication anniversary of A LITTLE LIFE and the world premiere of its English language stage adaptation. In support of this moment Waterstones are offering viewers the chance to save £2 when purchasing the novel online using the discount code ALITTLELIFE (valid until 15 March): James Norton (Happy Valley) stars in the theatrical event of 2023 as visionary director Ivo van Hove (A View from the Bridge) stages the English language premiere of A LITTLE LIFE, his acclaimed production of the million-copy bestseller by Hanya Yanagihara. The much-anticipated play also stars Luke Thompson (Bridgerton), Omari Douglas (It’s A Sin), Zach Wyatt (The Witcher), Elliot Cowan (The Crown), Zubin Varla (Tammy Faye), Nathalie Armin (Force Majeure) and Emilio Doorgasingh (Best of Enemies). A LITTLE LIFE follows four college friends in New York City: aspiring actor Willem, successful architect Malcolm, struggling artist JB, and prodigious lawyer Jude. As ambition, addiction, and pride threaten to pull the group apart, they always find themselves bound by their love for Jude and the mysteries of his past. But when those secrets come to light, they finally learn that to know Jude St Francis is to understand the limitless potential of love in the face of life. Due to record-breaking demand #ALittleLifePlay will transfer to the Savoy Theatre for 5 weeks only from Tuesday 4 July. @ALittleLifePlay
