Madwomen of the West; 30th July - 24th August; Riverside Studios; from £30
A new comedy by Sandra Tsing Loh
Direct from its smash hit runs in New York and Los Angeles, Madwomen of the West stars four close friends who happen to be film/TV icons: Caroline Aaron (Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Brooke Adams (Days of Heaven), Marilu Henner (Taxi) and Melanie Mayron (Thirtysomething). For a girls’ night out, it’s a rip-roaring time.
Welcome to Jules’ stunning Brentwood mansion, where hangry (she’s sugar-cleansing) Marilyn is throwing a surprise birthday brunch for Claudia, who hates birthdays. Champagne corks pop — and tempers flare — when their long-estranged celebrity friend Zoey crashes the party, fresh from her TED Talks.
Expect hilarity, outrageous opinions, and unexpected wisdom about what it means to be a woman (no matter what pronouns you use) in the 21st century.
