Production images for Thom Southerland’s production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Woman in White have been released ahead of the show’s opening night at the Charing Cross Theatre.
Walter Hartright’s life is changed forever after a chance encounter with a mysterious woman, dressed in white, desperate to reveal her chilling secret. When he takes up his position as drawing master to the beautiful Laura Fairlie and her half sister, Marian, he sees in Laura’s face an eerie reflection of the forlorn creature he met previously. Walter and Laura’s feelings for each other are thwarted by her engagement to the sinister Sir Percival Glyde. What is the connection between, Laura, Sir Percival, and the woman in white? Can true love prevail?
This tale of love, greed and betrayal is brought to life for the first time since it originally premiered at the Palace Theatre in 2004.
With a newly revised score by Andrew Lloyd Webber and David Zippel, The Woman in White is adapted from Wilkie Collins’ haunting Victorian thriller and features a book by Charlotte Jones.
