Ahead of her appearance in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (released June 30th), Phoebe Waller-Bridge can be seen in her career-making role as Fleabag. The live production, recorded in 2019, returns to Cineworld screens, re-acquainting us with Waller-Bridge's acidic, witty and groundbreaking comic creation who eventually spearheaded her own hit BBC TV show.
Here's what you need to know about the production including screening times and dates.
Who is involved in the live production of Fleabag?
This is the National Theatre Live iteration of Fleabag, which enjoyed huge box office success on its initial run back in 2019 in London's West End. The production is written by and stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Vicky Jones directs.
Fleabag is described as "a rip-roaring look at some sort of woman living her sort of life. Following a box-office record-breaking run in cinemas in 2019, the one-woman show returns to cinemas to the big screen this summer. Fleabag may seem oversexed, emotionally unfiltered and self-obsessed, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. With family and friendships under strain and a guinea pig café struggling to keep afloat, Fleabag suddenly finds herself with nothing to lose."
What did critics say about Fleabag?
The production has been garlanded with five-star reviews, described as "witty, filthy and supreme" by The Guardian. WhatsOnStage lauds Waller-Bridge's central performance as "terrific" and The New Yorker enthuses about the "hilarious" script.
