Alison Steadman to star in Here

Alison Steadman has signed on to star in Lisa’s production of Michael Frayn’s classic comedy HERE at the Rose Theatre, Kingston.

The 1993 play – which runs from 19 April to 17 May 2012 -  centres on a young couple who share a small studio flat where they begin to construct their life together. 
But how will they decide anything when the other person keeps disagreeing, and when the woman downstairs keeps dumping the left-over remains of her own life on them?

Alison Steadman recently appeared in the West End in Noel Coward’s Blithe Spirit as the improbable clairvoyant Madame Arcati. Also on stage she created the role of the monstrous Beverly in Mike Leigh's Abigail's Party and starred in The Rise and Fall of Little Voice, for which she won an Olivier Award. 

Her films include Shirley Valentine and Mike Leigh’s Life Is Sweet and Topsy Turvy. Television work includes Fat Friends, The Singing Detective, Pride and Prejudice and Gavin & Stacey.
