Antic Face today announce that Johnnie Fiori will play Betty 4 alongside Sara Stewart (Betty 1), Lucy McCormick (Betty 2), Beatriz Romilly (Betty 3) and Genesis Lynea (Betty 5) in the UK première of Jen Silverman’s Collective Rage. Nina Wadia has had to regretfully withdraw from the production due to scheduling conflicts. The production opens in the Large at Southwark Playhouse on 29th January, with previews from 24th January and runs until 17th February.
Betty is rich; Betty is lonely; Betty’s busy working on her truck; Betty wants to talk about love, but Betty needs to hit something. Meanwhile, Betty decides to stage a production of that play-within-a-play from…what’s it called again? Summer’s Midnight Dream?
In Collective Rage the lives of five very different New York women named Betty collide at the intersection of anger, sex and “theat-ah”. As they meet, fall in love, rehearse, revel and rage, they realise that they’ve been stuck reading the same scripts for far too long. Strongly influenced by cabaret and female drag, this outrageous comedy exquisitely rejects shame and stereotype. It will punch you in the gut, break your heart and then take you dancing.
Johnnie Fiori’s theatre credits include originating the role of Motormouth Mabel in Hairspray at the Shaftesbury Theatre. Also at the Shaftesbury Theatre credits include Thoroughly Modern Millie and 125th Street.
