Tiger Country (NHB Modern Plays)

Nina Raine's Tiger Country is a hospital play that follows a tangle of doctors and nurses in a busy London hospital - from the award-winning author of Tribes.

Professionalism and prejudice, turbulent staff romances, ambition and failure collide in this swirling, action-packed drama about an overburdened health service that we all depend on and the dedicated individuals that keep it going.

'Tiger country' is where animal instinct stirs and an irrefutable eye opens. Where we make eye contact with the unknown.

Tiger Country was premiered at Hampstead Theatre in 2011 and, following its sell-out run, was revived there in 2014.

'a witty, highly intelligent, PC-scourging sensibility' - Independent
