A darkly funny new musical with a thrilling electro-folk score, Precipice is a story of crisis, humanity, and hope at the edge of disaster.

As the tides rise and the power fails, two timelines converge in a single flat, where yesterday's mistakes become tomorrow's reckonings.

Centuries apart, the residents of a towering high-rise arrive at a crossroads, taking shelter along the riverbank in Greenwich - the place where time begins and the world ends

Sometimes you have a stressful day but then your 6 year old asks you how to spell ‘flinging’ and is delighted by the fact it has ‘ing’ twice in a row and that makes everything feel better somehow.

"The people who make great musicals are theatre people. [...]They are as familiar with Little Shop of Horrors (a structural masterpiece) as they are with A Little Night Music. [...]when you think that the same genre houses Sweeney Todd, Hamilton and Grease, these artists are musical supercomputers."

This week the Royal Court Theatre significantly expanded our offer to playwrights everywhere. And all you need to do is send us your play.

I've written a letter to playwrights to explain the changes and the thinking behind them.
