Joanna Murray-Smith’s The Female of the Species will conclude its limited season at the Vaudeville Theatre on 4 October, prior to a planned US premiere.  Directed by Roger Michell, The Female of the Species is designed by Mark Thompson, with lighting by James Whiteside and sound by Matt McKenzie.  The Female of the Species is produced in the West End by David Richenthal and Mary Beth O’Connor, Nica Burns and Max Weitzenhoffer for Nimax Theatres.  

Margot Mason is a literary giant on a deadline.  When an uninvited fan arrives unexpectedly at her home, followed by her family and friends, Margot's feminist world begins to spiral out of control.

The cast is Eileen Atkins (Margot Mason), Paul Chahidi (Bryan Thornton), Anna Maxwell Martin (Molly Rivers), Con O’Neill (Frank), SopHie Thompson (Tess Thornton) and Sam Kelly (Theo Reynolds).

Roger Michell’s production marked the West End premiere for Joanna Murray-Smith’s The Female of the Species, which received its world premiere at the Melbourne Theatre Company in 2006.
