Two Ladies Play in London Bridge

The latest play on at the Bridge Theatre is Two Ladies, whose cast includes award-winning stage and screen actor Zoë Wanamaker who is re-united with director Nicholas Hytner for her Bridge debut and Zrinka Cvitešić who returns to the London stage after her Olivier award-winning performance in Once. As their husbands clash over an international crisis, the first ladies of France and America find themselves alone together in a side room. Friends, or enemies? When the stakes are so high, can they trust each other? And can they trust their husbands?

‘Master Harold’…and the boys on Southbank
