Our Ladies Of Perpetual Succour
Directed by the Royal Court’s Artistic Director Vicky Featherstone, heads to the West End.
Following sold out seasons at the National Theatre, Edinburgh Festival Fringe and UK Tour, the smash hit, award-winning new play from National Theatre of Scotland and Live Theatre Our Ladies of Perpetual Succour transfers to the West End for a strictly limited season.
From the creator of Billy Elliot (Lee Hall) comes the uplifting and moving story of six Catholic choir girls from Oban, let loose in Edinburgh for one day only. Funny, heartbreaking and raucously rude, Our Ladies of Perpetual Succour is adapted from Alan Warner’s brilliant novel about six young friends on the cusp of change and is directed by Royal Court Artist Director Vicky Featherstone.
Featuring the songs of ELO, Our Ladies is a glorious anthem to friendship, youth and growing up disgracefully.
Prepare thyself for 24 hours of holy chaos. Contains singing, hilarity, Sambuca and strong language.
