Lyonesse
Kristin Scott Thomas and Lily James star in Penelope Skinner’s searingly funny and passionate new play, directed by Ian Rickson.
Elaine (Kristin Scott Thomas) a reclusive and talented actress, disappears in mysterious circumstances. 30 years later, she finally feels ready to tell her story – summoning Kate, a young film executive (Lily James), to her remote Cornish home to assist with her glorious comeback.
But who really controls the stories we tell, and how we get to tell them? Will these women own their narrative, or will it be swept away from them at any given moment?
A story for our times, playing for a strictly limited season from 17 Oct – 23 Dec at the Harold Pinter Theatre.

So bad
30 November 2023
The play made no sense - the premise for a film of the star was so weak. Writing was really poor - no suspense or twist.

Enjoyable Evening
11 November 2023
It was a bit slow in the beginning then it turn around and become an enjoyable show. Great acting very funny in parts then tragic. My friend and I would tell friends to come to see it.

Disappointing play , poorly directed
3 November 2023
The play is a muddle and doesn't go anywhere . Kristin Scott Thomas had fun with her role , but Lily James , so delightful on screen, is surprisingly amateurish Direction was awful with characters standing around awkwardly
