Fascinating new drama The Lion and the Unicorn is set on an evening in 1939, just six weeks after war has been declared, at a private dinner between Winston Churchill, Neville Chamberlain and their wives, Clementine and Anne.
Prime Minister Chamberlain has seen all his efforts to negotiate peace with Hitler shattered, while Winston Churchill has been recalled to the cabinet after ten years, his dire warnings of the Nazi threat finally vindicated. History tells us this was the only time the four ever met alone - there is no official record as to what transpired during that unique evening…
This exciting world premiere – based on the book Dinner With Churchill by Robin Hawdon - is presented as a radio-play-live-on-stage. The setting is a radio studio, the actors ready as if for a radio broadcast, and the sound effects created live on stage, all combining to transport the audience to wartime London.
The play is brought to life by a star-studded cast of actors, including Brian Capron (Coronation Street, Where The Heart Is) as Neville Chamberlain and Tim Hudson (De Gaulle, Father Brown) as Winston Churchill. Corrinne Wicks (Doctors, Emmerdale) will play Clementine Churchill, Sarah
Gain (Twelfth Night, Much Ado About Nothing) plays Anne Chamberlain and Frazer Hines (Emmerdale, Doctor Who) is Inches, the Churchill’s butler.
