Female of the Species description

Margot Mason, is a feminist literary giant suffering an extreme case of writer's block as deadline after deadline comes and goes on her next book. When a young fan arrives unexpectedly at her country home, Margot's world slowly and comically begins to unravel as family and friends show up and debate the virtues of her best-sellers, her inconsistent world view, and her decidedly un-motherly touch.


Dame Eileen Atkins leads the cast in Joanna Murray-Smith's latest play. She is joined by Paul Chahidi, Anna Maxwell Martin, Con O'Neill, Sophie Thompson and Sam Kelly.


Please note: Latecomers will not be admitted at any time during the performance. This is due to the performance lasting only 95 minutes with no interval.
