Photo Flash: THE LADYKILLERS Press Launch!

The Ladykillers, the 1955 classic Ealing comedy, is this autumn brought back to life on the stage in a production that will play at The Liverpool Playhouse from November 3rd - 19th, prior to opening at the Gielgud Theatre on November 26th.

The Ladykillers tells the story of the eccentric little old lady Mrs Wilberforce who lives alone with her parrots in a strange lopsided house in King's Cross. Her life is turned upside down by the arrival of Professor Marcus and his four friends, who between them make up the most unlikely group of criminals. Planning the heist of a security van, they decide to use Mrs Wilberforce as cover and involve her unwittingly in the plot. Things do not go well and the Professor's plan starts to unravel in spectacular and hilarious fashion.

The cast includes Peter Capaldi, James Fleet, Hugo Horton, Ben Miller, Stephen Wight, Marcia Warren, and Clive Rowe. View photos from the press launch below!
