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.
A story of greed, ambition and a family on the edge, Lillian Hellman’s The Little Foxes receives a savage new staging by Olivier Award-winning director Lyndsey Turner (The Witches, The Crucible).

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR The Little Foxes
The Little Foxes review – revival of southern American classic leaves questions unanswered
4 / 10
But it is too slow and static, turning Hellman’s masterpiece into a workman-like production. You do not feel a change of emotional temperature, only the turning cogs of the plot. The scheming around financial percentages and investments is like a business meeting that goes on for too long, and the human drama beneath – the jostling for power and advantage-seeking between siblings – does not quite find its footing.
Review: The Little Foxes (Young Vic)
8 / 10
Though it was a suitably dramatic press night for unexpected reasons, the expected drama of The Little Foxes was played out in fantastic fashion. Though the production isn’t quite perfect, there is more than enough on offer here to ensure a watch that will captivate you until the very end. Lyndsey Turner’s use of tension and suspense creates an urgent atmosphere that amplifies the savagery of the story. Bolstered by a sensational cast, The Little Foxes may be an ambitious production, but this ambition is more than met with a show that had no issue coming out on top.

Review: THE LITTLE FOXES, Young Vic

We love watching a rich family crumble on stage. From Oedipus and his mother to Chekhov’s families fractured by existential angst, to Ibsen’s split by socio-politics paradigm shifts. The Hubbards, the family of former plantation owners in Lilian Hellman’s The Little Foxes, could be the spiritual successor of them all
