Description

From Aristophanes to Zeffirelli, from Gerard Depardieu to Mae West, in Break a Leg!

Michele Brown has assembled a world-beating cast, including actors, dramatists, directors and even critics (`A man who knows the way but cannot drive the car.' Kenneth Tynan).

She draws on plays, books, newspapers and table-talk and her collection of wise and witty lines includes the familiar and the completely unexpected.

This is a work where Sarah Bernhardt is playing opposite Kenneth Branagh. Orson Welles is sharing the limelight with Samuel Beckett, Aphra Behn and Noel Coward, and the themes range from stage fright to star quality.
