Juliet Stevenson and Sophie Thompson to Lead All-Star Virtual Revival of LITTLE WARS…
“Juliet Stevenson (The Doctor), Linda Bassett (Call The Midwife), Debbie Chazen (The Smoking Room), Natasha Karp (Rags), Catherine Russell (Holby City), Sarah Solemani (Him and Her), and Sophie Thompson (Present Laughter) will star in McCasland’s 1940’s what-if dinner party drama.
Bringing together six exceptional women, Little Wars unites literary figureheads Gertrude Stein (Bassett), her girlfriend Alice Toklas (Russell), Dorothy Parker (Chazen), Lillian Hellman (Stevenson) and Agatha Christie (Thompson), with anti-fascist freedom fighter Muriel Gardiner (Solemani), in the most fantastical what-if dinner party imaginable. Tensions are high and secrecy lingers in the air, but with libations flowing and the threat of World War II looming the guests are close to boiling point.”
