Unicorn

Nicola Walker and Stephen Mangan have already played one troubled couple in the TV show The Split, and now they take on another in Mike Bartlett’s latest. One of his intimate ‘relationship plays’ in the vein of Cock and Bull rather than his more grandiose conceptual work, Unicorn sees Walker and Mangan star as Polly and Nick, a couple who decide to open up their marriage, with Erin Doherty’s Kate the third drafted in to bring some sparkle back to their relationship. James Macdonald directs this straight-into-the-West End premiere, having done the honours for the smash revival of Cock a couple of years back.
