Cattrall & Numrich Rehearse SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH

Stage, screen and SEX & THE CITY star Kim Cattrall essays the role of Alexandra Del Lago in the new West End staging of the Tennessee Williams classic SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH at Kevin Spacey's artistically-supervised Old Vic and new production shots of the sexy siren and her accomplished and attractive co-star, Seth Numrich, have just been revealed.

Go behind the scenes of the new Marianne Elliott-directed production with these candid new shots, also featuring former War Horse breakout star and Elliott collaborator Numrich as gigolo Chance.

SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH depicts the tale of a fading movie star and her handsome young companion as they bicker, battle, barter and booze it up while locked away in a hotel room over a very long weekend as well as the goings-on in Chance's hometown at the same time involving the affluent Finley family.

Geraldine Page and Paul Newman famously starred in the original 1959 production as well as the 1962 feature film. The only previous West End production occurred in 1985 and starred Lauren Bacall and Michael Beck.

SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH plays June 1 through August 31 at The Old Vic Theatre in the West End.
