First look: Bloody Difficult Women world premiere at Riverside Studios in rehearsals

Here’s a first look at rehearsals for the world premiere production of Tim Walker’s Bloody Difficult Women.

Wind of Change, in association with Cahoots Theatre Company, will present the show at London’s Riverside Studios from 1 March (previews from 24 February) through to 26 March 2022.

The new play charts the events behind the court case Gina Miller brought against Theresa May in 2016 and what has ensued.

Stephen Unwin directs Calum Finlay (Max Guilden), Amara Karan (Gina Miller), Edmund Kingsley (Alan Miller), Graham Seed (Sir Hugh Rosen), Jessica Turner (Theresa May) and Andrew Woodall (Paul Dacre).

Design comes from Nicky Shaw with lighting design by David Howe and sound design by John Leonard.

Tim Walker’s brand-new drama sees the tumultuous political events of recent years played out in a power struggle between two determined women.

His intensely human account of the court case Mrs Miller brought against Mrs May makes for revealing and often very funny theatre, but ultimately it’s a tragedy, where there are no winners, only losers.

Walker brings the story bang up to date in a dramatic finale which says so much about the deep divisions we still have in our country.
