Amy's ViewIt’s 1979. Esme Allen is a well-known
actress at just the moment when the West End is
ceasing to offer actors a regular way of life. The visit of her young
daughter, Amy, with a new boyfriend sets in train
a series of events which only find their shape sixteen
years later. Playwright David Hare's four-act
family drama mixes love, death and the theatre in an exciting and
original way. Previous productions have included Judi
Dench and Felicity Kendal in the cast and have been performed at the
National Theatre and on Broadway. |
