National Theatre Live: Hangmen

2016, English. Directed by Matthew Dunster & Ross MacGibbon.

You’re getting ‘hanged’ by nincompoops.

In his small pub in the northern English town of Oldham, Harry is something of a local celebrity. But what's the second-best hangman in England to do on the day they've abolished hanging? Amongst the cub reporters and pub regulars dying to hear Harry's reaction to the news, his old assistant Syd and the peculiar Mooney lurk with very different motives for their visit.
