Why is that our fascination with celebrity, youth and identity never seems to get old?All About Eve is a thrilling production by Ivo van Hove, one of the world’s most innovative theatre directors, creator of the Tony and Olivier award-winning A View from the Bridge, amongst many other outstanding works. The production features a metamorphic yet intimate setting and lighting design by his long-time collaborator Jan Versweyveld, while the actors are smartly dressed by the prolific An D’ Huys.
Starring acclaimed actresses Gillian Anderson (X-Files, A Streetcar Named Desire) and Lily James (Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again), this West End play premiered in 2018 and was broadcast worldwide on the big screen by The National Theatre of Great Britain.
Adapted from a 1950 Hollywood film, the play tells the story of Margo Channing, a seasoned Broadway star who, despite her age, is still very much under the limelight. But when the beautiful, much younger, and deceitful Eve steps in, Channing’s reign is at risk. This contemporary, theatrical masterpiece delves into the ruthlessness of the showbiz, now on a screen near you!
