Lettice and Lovage by Peter Shaffer is getting a West End rehearsed reading later this month, in aid of Alzheimer’s Research UK.

Directed by Loveday Ingram, Shaffer’s much-loved play will star West End legends Maureen Lipman, Tom Conti and Anne Reid.

The cast will also include Miranda Hewitt and Cassandra Hodges.

In the comedy, flamboyant tour guide Lettice Douffet comes up against brusque traditionalist Charlotte Schoen from the Preservation Trust, for theatrically over-embellishing historical facts on her tours of Fustian House. These two eccentric ladies, through a shared desire to preserve the beauty of the past and following dramatic developments in Lettice’s living room, find themselves in a spot of trouble as solicitor, Mr Bardolph explains.

The reading will take place at 5.30pm on Sunday 24 March 2024 at the Ambassador’s Theatre in London.
