About The World's Wife

From Mrs Faust and Frau Freud to Queen Kong and Mrs Midas, this delightful show slices through history and myth to present it from the wives’ persepective. Laced with dark humour and acerbic wit, this passionate exposé will enthral lovers of Duffy’s poems and newcomers alike.

Linda Marlowe has enjoyed great acclaim for her previous solo work including Berkoff’s Women. Following a West End run she fabulously brings the poet laureate's words to life.

7.30pm

Reviews

“BRILLIANT, WITTY, SUBVERSIVE… WHAT LINDA MARLOWE DOES IS REMARKABLE.” The Observer

"SEDUCES WITH A RIOT OF VIVID IMAGERY AND A FIREWORK DISPLAY OF VIRTUOSO ACTING. DUFFY’S WRITING IS DELICIOUSLY RICH, AND MARLOWE’S INTERPRETATIONS WILL HAVE YOU LICKING YOUR LIPS. " The Times
