Sigourney Weaver is heading to the West End to star in The Tempest at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane – and this is how to get tickets.
The actress will make her debut in London’s West End in the Jamie Lloyd Company production of the Shakespeare classic.
She will star as Prospero in the new production of The Tempest between 7 December and 1 February.
It will mark the first time a company has presented Shakespeare at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in decades, with Lloyd calling it an “honour”.
The Academy Award-nominated actress said: “I am delighted to be making my West End debut in Shakespeare’s The Tempest directed by the brilliant Jamie Lloyd.
“And to do so in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s beautiful and historic Theatre Royal Drury Lane is an extraordinary opportunity. Come and see us!”
