Cheap tickets for Jerusalem are available at http://wos.im/JerusalemTix

Mark Rylance and Mackenzie Cook star in Jez Butterworth's critically acclaimed play Jersusalem, returns to the Apollo Theatre where it played a sell-out run in Spring 2010.

A multi award-winning epic, Jerusalem is as a comic, contemporary vision of life in our green and pleasant land. Set on St George's Day, the morning of the local county fair, Johnny (Mark Rylance), a limping, caravan-dwelling ex-stuntman, all-round village rogue and modern-day Pied Piper, is a wanted man. The council officials want to serve him an eviction notice, his children want their dad to take them to the fair, Troy Whitworth (Mackenzie Crook) wants to give him a serious kicking and a motley crew of mates want his ample supply of drugs and alcohol.

In it's previous West End run, Jerusalem won the Whatsonstage.com Award for Best New Play and Mark Rylance also won the Olivier, Evening Standard and Critics Circle Award. The play subsequently transferred to Broadway where he won his second The Tony Award.

Jerusalem is directed by the Royal Court's former artistic director Ian Rickson who's most recent credits have included Betrayal and The Children's Hour.

Mark Rylance's many stage credits include Endgame, Boeing-Boeing (for which he won his first Tony Award for Best Actor when it transferred to Broadway), True West, The Maids and numeropus roles at Shakespeare's Globe, of which he was the founding artistic director.

Mackenzie Crook is best known for his roles in The Office and the Pirates of the Caribbean films. His stage credits incude One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in the West End and The Seagull at the Royal Court.

@Anatolij86 It's Jerusalem. It's an English hymn that they often sing at the beginning of Women's Institute meetings.

Sorry to bother again, doesn anyone know the title of the songs the girl's singing at the beginning?

I saw this on Broadway and was staggered by its greatness. Then saw it again in London at The Apollo from Row F, aisle seat, on 12 November. Across the aisle was a familiar looking face in Row E. And the play was so good the second time that I flat out managed to ignore the fact that Mick Jagger was 5 feet away watching the same play. Mick & me gave a standing ovation at curtain call.
