Much-loved Waterloo theatre The Old Vic has announced a whole raft of new online initiatives responding to London’s lockdown. Your Old Vic brings the spirit of the institution into your home, with loads of educational resources, a scheme to help with employment in the hard-hit theatre sector, and a series of full-length online streams of Old Vic archive productions. These shows will be hosted for free on the Old Vic’s YouTube channel, starting with ‘A Monster Calls’ from 2018. This heart-wrenching, Olivier Award-winning show tells the story of a 13-year-old-boy, Conor, who is visited by a monster every night.
