National Theatre Live: The Habit of Art (2010): Cast & Box Office

Theatre Live’s filming of Alan Bennett’s *The Habit of Art* returns for the theatre’s 50th anniversary. Featuring Richard Griffiths, Alex Jennings and Frances de La Tour, it imagines a 25‑year reunion of Benjamin Britten, about *Death in Venice*, with poet W.H. Auden. Their dialogue, observed by a youth, examines art, biography, aging and habit of art.
