Whitby Coliseum is screening the NT Live production of Nye.

Michael Sheen plays Aneurin “Nye” Bevan in a surreal and spectacular journey through the life and legacy of the man who transformed Britain's welfare state and created the NHS.

Confronted with death, Nye’s deepest memories lead him on a mind-bending journey back through his life, from childhood to mining underground, Parliament and fights with Churchill.

Doors open at 6.15pm for a 7pm prompt start.

Tickets cost £10 and are available from the Coliseum Centre.

The bar will be open selling a selection of wine, beer and soft drinks and tea and coffee will be available too.

You could also enjoy a pizza brought to you by Pizza Pals before the production gets under way.
