Overview

By James Graham
Directed by Jason Loewith
Now playing through September 24
 
London, 1969. A brash young Australian named Rupert Murdoch approaches journalist Larry Lamb with a staggeringly ambitious proposition: to turn the struggling paper The Sun into the best-selling tabloid in the UK…within a year. An unexpected partnership is born as Lamb and Murdoch assemble a team of scrappy underdog journalists and begin to transform The Sun into a populist juggernaut. Once they discover the formula to success the consequences are thrilling and terrifying. This “riveting” (The Guardian) Tony Award-winning Broadway and West End hit depicts the birth of our hyper-partisan news culture in a truth-is-stranger-than-fiction drama that will have you on the edge of your seat. 

Co-produced with Olney Theatre Center and performed at Round House Theatre

Ink is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com

"[An] excellent production...muscularly compelling...expert performances...always feels like the real article."
-The Washington Post
 
"For a town as obsessed as Washington with making news, being news, breaking news, Ink is veritable popcorn fare"
-The Washington Post
"Stop the presses. Ink at Round House Theatre is a must-see...under Jason Loewith’s sure direction the intense pace of the plot never falters, and a top-shelf cast of 13 arrests attention."
-DC Theater Arts
“Brilliant staging”
-The Georgetowner
“Superb...constant[ly] visually thrilling...a quality production of an intelligent play"
-Broadway World
