A story of greed, ambition and a family on the edge.
The Little Foxes starring BAFTA award-winning actress Anne-Marie Duff (Suspect, Bad Sisters) will run at the Young Vic Theatre in a savage new staging by Olivier award-winning director Lyndsey Turner (The Witches, The Crucible) this December.
Award-winning actress Anne-Marie Duff (Bad Sisters, Suffragette, Nowhere Boy) stars as Regina Hubbard, alongside BAFTA Scotland award-winner Mark Bonnar (Napoleon, Catastrophe) as Benjamin Hubbard; Anna Madeley (All Creatures Great and Small, A Midsummer Night’s Dream) as Birdie Hubbard; Steffan Rhodri (Gavin and Stacey, Macbeth) as Oscar Hubbard; Andrea Davy (Coronation Street, Nine Night) as Addie; Olivier award-nominee John Light (Showtrial,The Book of Dust: La Belle Sauvage ) as Horace Giddens / William Marshall; Stanley Morgan (The Serpent Queen, Sexy Beast) as Leo Hubbard; Olivier Award-winner Eleanor Worthington-Cox (Britannia, Next to Normal) as Alexandra Giddens and Freddie MacBruce making his professional debut as Cal.
Playing from 2 December - 8 February, The Little Foxes is a story of greed, ambition and a family on the edge by American author and dramatist Lillian Hellman. Anne-Marie has said: “The Little Foxes is a formidable play by a formidable writer - I couldn’t put it down. It’s a searing drama about corruption, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of power. At the heart of it is Regina, a charismatic yet ruthless character who, when the reins are unleashed, goes full force to take matters into her own hands. It’s a joy to return to the Young Vic stage and bring Lillian Hellman’s classic play to life with the brilliant Lyndsey Turner.”
- There are people who eat the earth and eat all the people on it.
- Then there are people who stand around and watch them eat it.
After a lifetime spent watching her brothers grow rich, Regina Hubbard has had enough of standing around. When a businessman offers the family the prospect of untold wealth and power, a sequence of events unfolds that sets brother against brother, father against son and Regina against the whole pack of them.
