Mike Leigh’s tragicomic masterpiece ABIGAIL’S PARTY has garnered cult status across the decades.
In our distinctive space, award-winning Director Natalie Abrahami draws on the unique in-the-round stage to create an intimate party that you won’t want to miss.
At the height of 1970s suburbia, social class and ambition, Beverly Moss, the Hostess with the Mostess, is inviting you to her cocktail party. The latest tracks are on the record player, the drinks are flowing and there’s even a bowl of olives – although it seems that only Laurence likes those. As the night moves on and the party gets thick with sexual tension, Beverly’s exclusive gathering quickly descends into chaos.
See this epic modern classic at the Royal Exchange Theatre for the first time this spring.
