The production of Lillian Hellman’s play will run at the theatre from the 2nd December until the 8th February.
It has been announced that BAFTA Award-winning actress Anne-Marie Duff (Bad Sisters, Suffragette, Nowhere Boy) will lead the cast in a new production of Lillian Hellman’s The Little Foxes, directed by Lyndsey Turner (The Witches, The Crucible).
The news marks the first time in 17 years that the actress has performed at the Young Vic Theatre.
After a lifetime spent watching her brothers grow rich, Regina Hubbard has had enough of standing around. When a businessman offers the family the prospect of untold wealth and power, a sequence of events unfolds that sets brother against brother, father against son and Regina against the whole pack of them.
Talking about joining the production, Anne-Marie Duff said: “The Little Foxes is a formidable play by a formidable writer – I couldn’t put it down. It’s a searing drama about corruption, betrayal and the relentless pursuit of power. At the heart of it is Regina, a charismatic yet ruthless character who, when the reins are unleashed, goes full force to take matters into her own hands. It’s a joy to return to the Young Vic stage and bring Lillian Hellman’s classic play to life with the brilliant Lyndsey Turner.”
While further casting has yet to be announced, the creative team includes: Design by Lizzie Clachan, Lighting Design by Lucy Carter, Sound Design by Tingying Dong, Fight Direction by Kev McCurdy, Accent Coach Penny Dyer and Casting by Jess Ronane CDG CSA.
