Legendary star of stage and screen, Ralph Fiennes, stars opposite Miranda Raison (Spooks) in David Hare’s ‘fascinating, absorbing and very funny’ (FT) play, transferring from a sell-out season at Theatre Royal Bath.

With its elegant interiors and intimate atmosphere, it offers an unforgettable theatrical experience in one of the city’s oldest playhouses.
