### 5/5 — Blown away! But why can’t I afford live theatre anymore?

*2026-08-22*

These performances are, of course, top class. The staging, the lighting, the pace: enough to take my breath away.
But I last went to the National Theatre in my twenties. My late father had the tickets as a journalist perk.
That was forty years ago. As a lifelong teacher, I’ve not been able to afford it since!
What are you doing to make sure ambassadors for live theatre, ordinary people, the rest of us(basically)can experience the part this wonderful app cannot? The ability to turn one’s head and gaze and gasp at the wonder of live performance on stage?

### 5/5 — This theatre geeks favorite streaming service

*2026-08-05*

I’ve subscribed to NT at Home for 4 years now and have always found favorites throughout the year. There’s a handful of plays I have watched multiple times! I am grateful for NT at Home and hope they maintain this quality for a long time to come! I have rewatched plays I saw live at The National a number of times. As a theatre person, I can’t think of a better streaming service than NT at Home. You can get it for loved ones as a gift too! I have been so loved!

### 5/5 — Wonderful viewing!

*2026-08-03*

What a treat to sit in my home in Australia snd watch world class theatre from my home town.

### 5/5 — Sheer Genius , when you can’ t go to the theatre , a lifeline 🤣👏👍

*2026-07-27*

You Are The Best : Many Many Big Thanks for your work : indeed you are a Lifeline 🎭🎭🎭✌️✌️✌️👌👌👌👌😜

### 5/5 — An excellent service

*2026-07-26, version 10.200.1*

An excellent service and an excellent value! High quality productions featuring world class talent. Been subscribing for three years, and I never run out of great theater to watch. So grateful for NT@Home!

### 5/5 — So thankful for this!

*2026-07-24, version 10.200.1*

I can’t tell you how much I cherish having access to this amazing art from so far away - I have had the pleasure of seeing National Theatre live, in cinemas, and (blissfully) also at home! I find myself coming back to old favorites as well as checking out the new ones. Thank you for keeping art ACCESSIBLE! ❤️❤️❤️

### 2/5 — Live?

*2026-07-22, version 10.200.1*

A great idea in principle, but the app is clunky, plus downloads don’t work off Wi-Fi.

### 5/5 — The Audience

*2026-07-22, version 10.200.1*

Loved this! Script was very clever and funny. Staging was simple but very effective. Costumes were of the time and beautifully made as always. It’s great to be able to watch quality performances from the comfort of your own home. So glad I joined National Theatre at Home.

### 5/5 — Watch great theatre at home

*2026-07-19, version 10.200.1*

We go to the National Theatre a few times a year but we also subscribe to NTatHome as it means we can more easily watch shows at home as well.

### 4/5 — Connection sometimes difficult but productions always top rate

*2026-07-12*

The connection is improving but up to 2025 difficult in some context.  However, the quality of filming and of the productions showcased have been uniformly fabulous. We are lucky enough to have been to many plays, including at the National. Seeing these ones on screen is if anything even better than the live experience (and many of the live aspects actually come across on screen from the buzz and atmosphere). I have given it as a special gift to particular friends in USA and would confidently do so for any theatre lovers worldwide, especially if they enjoy the London scene. However, being lucky enough to be in the London scene, we can promise you that this is not a second best. It is a brilliant experience as well, not the same in some respects but even better in others. Thank you!
