These included one of the most prestigious, the New York Critics’ Circle Award.

The play is set in Mama Nadi’s bar in a mining town in the Democratic Republic of Congo, one of the most war-torn countries in the world.

‘The History Boys’ was a huge hit for the National Theatre in London. It was written by Alan Bennett and directed by Nicholas Hytner and made a great deal of money as the theatre tickets for the transfers and tours sold out. The History Boys was even made into a successful film. Indeed, a recent report on the National Theatre in London’s finances even referred to the production and mentioned that the National may need to look elsewhere for monies now that the stream from that show is finally drying up. In fact, the play hasn’t gone away just yet as in 2010 the West Yorkshire Playhouse and Bath Theatre Royal will be staging a co-production directed by Christopher Luscombe.

However, when a new play, written by Alan Bennett and directed by Nicholas Hytner came along, there was a lot of pressure on it to deliver both artistically and commercially. The men in suits need not have worried! ‘The Habit of Art’ is a hit. The Daily Telegraph and the Independent both gave the show five stars. In fact, the Independent said, “Bennett the maestro returns with a multi-layered masterpiece”. It is currently scheduled to run until 6th April 2010. Some of the cast are also shared by ‘The History Boys’ including Richard Griffiths, Frances De la Tour and Adrian Scarborough.
