BALANCING ACTS - Nicholas Hytner
Nicholas Hytner became Director of the National Theatre in 2003, and spent the next 12 years reinvigorating the theatre. He changed the public’s perception of what theatre is, and introduced new talent, directing some of the most celebrated actors of our times. Balancing Acts takes us behind the scenes during his stewardship.
The design for the cover is inspired by theatre posters, illustrated with bold abstracted glimpses of the National Theatre. It uses Helvetica, which became the ‘house typeface’ for their posters and promotional material, during Hytner’s time at the theatre.
