Almeida Theatre's summer production of The Years, a U.K. premiere, will transfer to London's West End in 2025. Performances will begin at the Harold Pinter Theatre January 24, 2025 and continue through April 19.

The work is adapted by Eline Arbo from Nobel winner Annie Ernaux's French memoir Les Années, and translated into English by Stephanie Bain. The work sees five women bringing one woman's personal story to life against the backdrop of post-war Europe. The work debuted at Het Nationale Theater in the Netherlands as De Jaren in 2022.

Along with director Arbo, the complete cast from the Almeida production will reprise their work in the West End, including Deborah Findlay, Romola Garai (through March 8), Gina McKee, Anjli Mohindra, and Harmony Rose-Bremner. Additional casting is to be announced.

The production features music supervision and sound design by Thijs van Vuure, scenic design by Juul Dekker, costume design by Rebekka Wörmann, and lighting design by Varja Klosse. Casting is by Amy Ball.

Sonia Friedman Productions is producing.
