## Summary

Milo Rau and Servane Dècle’s documentary play about the trial of the men who drugged and raped Gisèle Pelicot will be staged at London’s County Hall on 30 November and livestreamed in full. The sold-out Young Vic production features Adjoa Andoh, Rosie Jones and Olivia Williams, and uses the facts of the case to create what the theatre’s director describes as a powerful act of witnessing.

The article also highlights several works available to stream in November: a new Internationaal Theater Amsterdam music compilation on Spotify; Damien Jalet and Erna Ómarsdóttir’s dance film *DuEls*, set among sculptures at Oslo’s Vigeland Museum; and Carrie Cracknell’s revival of Tom Stoppard’s *Arcadia*, available on NT at Home from 26 November. Selina Thompson’s film of her award-winning performance about the transatlantic slave trade is on BBC iPlayer.
