The Menier Chocolate Factory has announced a casting update for its production of Peter Shaffer’s Lettice and Lovage.  Joining the previously announced Felicity Kendal and Maureen Lipman, are Petra Markham and Sam Dastor in the production directed by Trevor Nunn. The show opens on 17 May, with previews from 4 May, and completing its run on 8 July; and follows Nunn’s production of Rattigan’s Love in Idleness.

Lettice, employed as a stately home tourist guide, has inherited theatricality and eccentricity from her mother. Caught using ‘alternative facts’ to embroider the history of the house by Lotte, her supervisor, she is dismissed.  During the dismissal interview they uncover common ground with the result that she and Lotte develop an unlikely friendship. This is the first major revival of Lettice and Lovage since the 1987 West End production.

Peter Shaffer’s Lettice And Lovage is at the Menier Chocolate Factory 4th May – 8th July.
