In Calum Finlay’s Fanny, sibling rivalry and musical history occasionally seem barely more than mere pretexts for a superlative slice of Mischief-adjacent tomfoolery. When Fanny Mendelssohn finds out that not only is one of her works a favourite of Queen Victoria but her brother Felix is taking credit for it, the enraged composer begins a madcap journey from Berlin to Buckingham Palace to set the record straight.
Full casting has been announced for Fanny, Calum Finlay's riotous comedy, directed by Katie-Ann McDonough, which plays at the King's Head Theatre this autumn.

Let’s rewind to 2016. The fires of Brexit are being stoked left and right and the discourse is rife everywhere, the news swarm with opinions and facts. Theresa May is about to go from Home Secretary to Prime Minister. Kenneth Clarke is being interviewed by Sky and he’s passing judgement on the candidates for the job. He smirks through his opinion of May and ends it with “Theresa’s a bloody difficult woman, but you and I [Michael Rifkind, whom he was talking to] worked for Margaret Thatcher”. This is the anecdote that titles Tim Walker’s new play about the sparring between May and Gina Miller, who took the government to court over their authority to trigger Article 50 without any approval from Parliament after the Brexit referendum.
