Recordings of some of the cast of characters involved

A Building Nightmare

Lighting designer and theatre consultant Richard Pilbrow of Theatre Projects looks back on his involvement in the building of the NT.

Sir Denys Lasdun

The legendary architect of London's National Theatre, was the castaway on the 20th December 1976 BBC Radio 4 programme Desert Island Discs. What he decided to take with him was Mozart, a telescope, and a book about the night sky.

Nobody wanted the National Theatre

British-born theatre director, Sir Peter Hall (1930-2017), ran the Arts Theatre, founded the Royal Shakespeare Company when he was only 29, and succeeded Laurence Olivier as the National's director in 1973. In 1977 he was knighted for his contribution to the theatre.
