An Inspector Calls Tickets: A Gripping Moral Thriller

As Stephen Daldry's Olivier Award-winning production returns to London, experience the compelling drama and stirring moral heart of J.B. Priestley’s play An Inspector Calls. Performed at the iconic Alexandra Palace Theatre, this powerful and thought-provoking revival of a 20th-century classic has a “breathtaking visual invention” (The Telegraph) and remains the theatrical event of its generation.

About An Inspector Calls

When mysterious Inspector Goole arrives without warning at the Birling’s home, their peaceful dinner party is upended. Goole is investigating the suicide of a young woman and as the evening progresses, each family member finds themselves under the spotlight. Did they know Eva Smith, and are they responsible for what happened to her?

Startling revelations shake the foundations of the Birling’s lives in this classic thriller, which exposes a web of deceit and hypocrisy at the heart of a wealthy family’s moral conscience. Written at the start of the Second World War and set just before the First World War, its message is startlingly relevant for a modern audience.

Stephen Daldry's Award-Winning Show Returns

Director Stephen Daldry's (Billy Elliot) "bold and brilliant" (The Guardian) production is the definitive modern revival of J.B. Priestley's play and has been celebrated for its imaginative, innovative staging. Since premiering at the National Theatre in 1992, it has won 19 major awards including three Oliviers (Best Revival, Best Director and Best Designer) and four Tonys on Broadway. It has been seen by over five million theatregoers worldwide and holds the record for longest-running revival of a play.

Audiences will feel the full impact of this atmospheric production, as Daldry's inspired vision - including a visually arresting set design that displays the Birlings' respectability breaking down in real-time - draws out the tragedy and corruption at the heart of Priestley's story.
