Frantic Assembly’s new production Lost Atoms will come to the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre in 2026 as part of a UK tour that also mark’s the company’s 30th anniversary programme.
Written by Anna Jordan (Succession, Killing Eve) and directed by Frantic Assembly artistic director Scott Graham, Lost Atoms tells the story of a relationship: an extraordinary, transformative love. Or is that only in hindsight? Perhaps it was just typical? Or toxic? Or doomed from the start? One thing’s for sure: It changed their lives.
Two people plunge deep into their shared pasts and propel themselves into multiple imagined futures. At times hilarious, at times devastating, Lost Atoms explores how memory impacts the way we look at love, and asks what makes a truly ‘successful’ relationship?
Lost Atoms will premiere this September before playing at the Lyric Hammersmith Curve from January 29-February 28, 2026.
It is produced by Kerry Whelan. The set design will be by Andrzej Goulding, lighting design by Simisola Majekodunmi, sound design by Carolyn Downing, costume design by Alice McNicholas and music supervision by Julie Blake. Commissioned and produced by Frantic Assembly, Lost Atoms will be a coproduction with Leicester Curve, Mayflower Southampton and the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre.
Lost Atoms is part of a programme of work to celebrate 30 years of Frantic Assembly with other projects for 2025 including the return of The House Party by Laura Lomas, coproduced by Headlong and Chichester Festival Theatre. May will see the premiere of a collaboration with Aurora Orchestra; Carnival is a new staging of Saint-Saëns’ The Carnival of the Animals and opens at the Southbank Centre on May 3.
