1. NT Live: A Midsummer Night’s Dream – October 13

Shakespeare's delightfully whimsical fantasy-comedy famously observed that "the course of true love never did run smooth". Now the National Theatre's acclaimed staging returns to Cineworld screens, captured at the Bridge Theatre in London with Game of Thrones' Gwendoline Christie as the imperious Titania. Nicholas Hytner directs and transforms the environment of the theatre into a living, breathing forest where anything can happen.

3. NT Live: Present Laughter – November 10

Sherlock star Andrew Scott collaborates with director Matthew Warchus in this sparkling adaptation of the Noel Coward classic.

4. NT Live: All My Sons – November 24

Screen veterans Bill Pullman and Sally Field headline Arthur Miller's scorching drama of family relationships. Beginning in 1947, All My Sons zeroes in on a stable American family whose existence is rocked by wartime loss and skeletons in the closet.

5. NT Live: Fleabag – December 8

Phoebe Waller-Bridge's painfully perceptive, and painfully funny, one-woman show Fleabag eventually gave rise to the critically acclaimed TV series of the same name. Now's your chance to return to where it all began, the original production that played to sell-out crowds in both London and New York. With its spot-on observations about relationships and messiness of modern life, you'll nod, cringe and laugh in equal measure.
