National Theatre Live: Dear Octopus
2024 · 151 min · Comedy, Drama
The family, from whose tentacles we can never quite escape.
When a golden wedding anniversary reunites the Randolph family on the eve of WWII, Dora and Charles must reckon with the adults their children have become. Their children, meanwhile, are haunted by the memory of the family they once were. As the weekend's celebrations unfold, the family walks a tightrope between intimacy and estrangement, camaraderie and rivalry, love and hate. Heartbreaking and joyful, this captivating revival of Dodie Smith's play is a moving dissection of family and what it means to grow up and return home.
