National Theatre of London’s acclaimed new production debuts on the big screen
Sedona, AZ — The National Theatre of London continues its season with its acclaimed new production of “The Fifth Step” showing in Sedona on Sunday and Wednesday, Jan. 18 and 21.
The Sedona International Film Festival hosts the big screen premiere at its Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.
Olivier Award-winner Jack Lowden is joined by Emmy and BAFTA-winner Martin Freeman in the critically acclaimed and subversively funny new play “The Fifth Step” by David Ireland.
After years in the 12-step program of Alcoholics Anonymous, James becomes a sponsor to newcomer Luka. The pair bond over black coffee, trade stories and build a fragile friendship out of their shared experiences. But as Luka approaches step five — the moment of confession — dangerous truths emerge, threatening the trust on which both of their recoveries depend.
Finn den Hertog directs the provocative and entertaining production filmed live from London’s West End.
