Last seen on the West End, Amelia Bullmore's new play Di and Viv and Rose crackles with wisdom and wit.
Away from home for the first time, and hailing from three distant corners of England, Di, Viv, and Rose form a complicated friendship during their first year at university. In their shared flat on Mossbank Road life feels boundless and bountiful-as intense as it is beautiful.
But when time catapults the trio forward, apart, and then back into each other's laps and hearts, we witness how their futures depend on a mutual preservation of their shared past.
"We are united by a mission: to explore, celebrate, and bring to life-on stage-female friendships, in all of their depth, power, and playfulness," says actor Leslie Erin Roth, who plays Rose. "This is a play about tenacious friendship-about what happens when we refuse to give up on each other. None of us had ever encountered a play that puts chosen family at the center with as much heart, humor, and scope as Di and Viv and Rose."
Di and Viv and Rose feature Olivia Levine, Raven Pierson and Leslie Erin Roth. Di and Viv and Rose is written by Amelia Bullmore, directed by Leta Tremblay with acting coaching by Misha Calvert, and is produced by Allison Ciuci with scenic and lighting design by Reilly Horan, costume design by Alice Wang, dramaturgy by Mirirai Sithole, and dialect coaching by Amanda Quaid.
