Abigail's Party


Abigail's Party, Cambridge Arts Theatre, 2003.

Cast: Lizzy McInnerny, Huw Higginson, Elizabeth Hopley, Simon Wilson, Liz Crowther.

Writer: Mike Leigh
Director: David Grindley

This is on my list of things I never need to see again, not because of this production which I'd forgotten I'd seen, but because of a later one that felt nasty and unpleasant. I don't think time has been kind to the characters and attitudes in it but I don't suppose it will ever go away.
