Once again, the tiny Jermyn Street Theatre is home to a scarily relevant production. In a political climate inhabited by immeasurable dangers for women (but then again, when has it not been like that?), Cautionary Tales for Daughters is mandatory viewing for everyone.

Los Angeles 1914 - a place where modern world reality meets 19th Century bigotry.  A time when law enforcement agencies are on a collision course with the clandestine and illicit gay community.

Following its hugely acclaimed premiere at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2015, Cautionary Tales for Daughters brings its "razor-sharp satirical song writing"  (The Stage) and "gut-punching" (The Times) lyricism to Jermyn Street Theatre this January.
