Arabian Nights: NHB Modern Plays

Arabian Nights focuses on seven of the 1,001 tales that Sharazad told her royal husband Shahrayar each morning to stave off her threatened execution. "It’s been a long time since I’ve heard a theatre audience stamp and whistle at a curtain call, but that’s precisely how the punters greeted Dominic Cooke’s vibrant staging of these classic Eastern folk tales."--Evening Standard
