We Begin Again, released yesterday on the NT and the Guardian’s digital platforms, was written by Olivier award winner James Graham and features a multi-generational cast, including 100 community members from the National Theatre’s Public Acts programme. 

Filmed both on location and remotely, the film demonstrates collaboration between an arts organisation, a news website, and a record label during a year which has been, in many ways, devastating for the arts. 

Starring Anita Dobson (Eastenders), Zubin Varla (Jesus Christ Superstar), Susan Wokoma (Enola Holmes) and Noah Thomas (Everybody’s Talking About Jamie), the video also features members of the NT’s Public Acts community partner organisations in Doncaster in partnership with Cast and the NT’s founding Greater London community partners as the community choir.
