In celebration of their 50 year anniverary, the National Theatre are embracing two of the nation's best loved pastimes in this pop-up.

Located on the site of its summer café-bar Propstore, Shopping and E*ting will provide a truly theatrical retail experience. Shoppers can expect an eclectic mix of unique products and limited edition prints specially commissioned from the greatest in contemporary design talent from the UK.

Iconic designers Michael Craig-Martin, Jamie Reid, Paula Scher, David Carson and Graphic Thought Facility have created stunning signed, limited edition prints for each decade of the NT’s 50 years.

Adam Dant celebrates the audience in a series of Hogarthian sketches of Attitudes and draws his own unique vision of how the National Theatre works.

‘Everybody Dies’, a range of witty products on Shakespeare’s Tragedies, will also launch exclusively at the shop, including greetings cards, mugs, bags, tea-towels and prints.

Visitors will also experience a unique street food and drink offer curated by the National Theatre’s innovative chefs, freshly cooked in an adjacent 1950’s Citroen van, including small dishes for £5 such as goose pies, Flammkuchen or pannetone bread and butter pudding.

Looks like this will be a one-stop shop for both sorting out your Christmas shopping and building up some pre-hibernation fat stores.

Open until the 12th January. Monday to Saturday 11am – 9pm Sunday 12 noon – 6pm
