Overview

2023 Winner of the prestigious RTST Sir Peter Hall Director Award, Jack Bradfield breathes new life into this classic Mike Leigh favourite.

 

Welcome to Mike Leigh’s cult-classic comedy, and prepare to see it like never before. This is the party to end all parties, and you’re all invited. RSVP.

 

Beverly, the queen of suburbia, is hosting a cocktail party. Next door, 15-year-old Abigail is throwing a party of her own. No one can stop talking about Abigail’s Party. No one can stop thinking about Abigail’s Party.

 

Something must be done about Abigail’s Party.

 

Laura Rogers (The Ocean at the End of the Lane, West End) will play self-appointed queen of suburbia, Beverly, who is hosting a cocktail party for her new neighbours. Leander Deeny (Wuthering Heights, China Plate) will play Beverly’s husband Laurence, with Chaya Gupta (The Government Inspector, Marylebone Theatre) and Joe Blakemore (The Hunt for Raoul Moat, ITV) as their working-class neighbours Angela and Tony, and Amy Rockson (Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, Shondaland & Netflix) as next door neighbour Susan, mother of the eponymous Abigail.
