MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS opens tomorrow night, Tuesday 16 February 2016, at the Noel Coward Theatre. Directed by Terry Johnson, it stars Tracie Bennett as 'Mrs Laura Henderson', Ian Bartholomew as 'Vivian Van Damm', Emma Williams as 'Maureen' and Jamie Foreman as 'Arthur'.

It's London, 1937, and recently widowed eccentric, Laura Henderson, is looking for a way of spending her time and money when her attention falls on a run down former cinema in Great Windmill Street. Hiring feisty impresario Vivian Van Damm to look after the newly renovated Windmill Theatre, the improbable duo present a bill of non-stop variety acts. But as war looms something more is required to boost morale and box office... When Mrs Henderson comes up with the idea of The Windmill Girls - glamorous young women posing as nude statues - audiences flock. And as the Blitz hits London, The Windmill provides a refuge for all, boasting the spirit-raising slogan "We Never Close".
