Peter DuBois directs the British premiere of Gina Gionfriddo's Becky Shaw, from 13 January and running until 5 March, with press night on 20 January 2011. Designs are by Jonathan Fensom, with lighting by Tim Mitchell and sound by John Leonard. Becky Shaw is sponsored by Pinsent Masons.
The cast is David Wilson Barnes (Max Garrett), Haydn Gwynne (Susan Slater), Daisy Haggard (Becky Shaw), Anna Madeley (Suzanna Salter) and Vincent Montuel (Andrew Porter).
From the moment that Becky arrives overdressed for her blind date with straight-talking Max, it's clear the evening is unlikely go to plan. In the immediate fallout, Becky becomes an object of devotion for her boss Andrew, who appears to have a fetish for vulnerable women. In turn Andrew's wife Suzanna turns to her step-brother Max for comfort, and their mutual desire begins to resurface.
