About the play
It's spring 1747 in Prussia and Johann Sebastian Bach is visiting the court of Frederick II. Having been summoned by Europe's most ambitious and dangerous leader, Bach is reluctant. The two couldn't be more different. Bach is religious, Frederick is an atheist. Bach loathes war, Frederick revels in it. Yet, Frederick is in awe of Bach's musical genius. Mischievously, he prepares a musical conundrum he hopes will baffle the composer and amuse his court. The explosive events of the following days could not have been predicted by either man.

The production is directed by Trevor Nunn, whose multi award-winning repertoire includes Les Misérables. He was previously artistic director of the National Theatre and the Royal Shakespeare Company. Taking on the role of Bach is multi award-winning actor Brian Cox. Cox has won the Olivier Award for Best Actor twice and a Golden Globe for "Succession".
