Calling all NHS workers! The Old Vic Theatre will be celebrating 70 years of the NHS with a special performance of monologues

The performance is entitled *The Greatest Wealth *and is comprised of eight monologues that were specially chosen for the historical event. The monologues were written by **Courttia Newland, Jack Thorne, Lolita Chakrabarti, Matilda Ibini, Meera Syal, Moira Buffini, Paul Unwin,** and **Seiriol Davies, **and they correspond to every decade since the NHS was first formed in 1948 in Manchester. The monologues will be presented in two parts on **25 and 26 June 2018** and will then be performed as a **double bill on Friday, 29 June 2018.** The Old Vic will offer **t****ickets to NHS workers at a low price of five pounds per performance** (the double bill on Friday is priced at 10 pounds for NHS workers). *The Greatest Wealth *will be accessible for those who are deaf or hard of hearing as the performance will be accompanied by live interpreters of British Sign Language (BSL). The event is a part of the theatre's *One Voice *initiative, which is meant to celebrate the many important anniversaries that occur during the [Old Vic's 200th year in the West End](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/news/1954/old-vic-celebrates-200-years.aspx). *One Hand Tied Behind Us *opened the initiative to celebrate 100 years of women's suffrage through a series of monologues curated by **Maxine Peake.** *One Voice *will continue this year with a performance commemorating a century since the end of World War I. Casting for *The Greatest Wealth *will be announced at a later date. * * * For more on what's currently playing at the Old Vic Theatre, click [here](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/60/old-vic-theatre.aspx).
