THE CONSTANT WIFE 

David Pugh and Cunard present The Royal Shakespeare Company production 
Prior to London’s West End. 
 
1927. Constance is a very unhappy woman. 
 
“Nonsense” says her mother. “She eats well, sleeps well, dresses well and she’s losing weight. No woman can be unhappy in those circumstances” 
 
Constance is the perfect wife and mother, and her husband is as devoted to her as he is to his mistress, who just happens to be her best friend. 
 
Adapted by Olivier Award-winner Laura Wade (Home, I’m Darling; TV’s Rivals) from Somerset Maugham’s glittering comedy, The Constant Wife originally opened in Stratford upon Avon to marvellous reviews and sold every seat.
 
Directed by Co-Artistic Director of the RSC Tamara Harvey, this sparkling new version will star Kara Tointon (TV’s Mr Selfridge and Winner of Strictly Come Dancing) and features original music composed by multi award- winning jazz artist Jamie Cullum.
 
“Sharp, sophisticated, fabulous and extremely funny” The Guardian
 
“Frothily radical Twenties comedy” The Times
