See newly released production images of Anne-Marie Duff in the world premiere of Some Woman at the National Theatre. Written by Helen Edmundson and directed by Blanche McIntyre, the play follows an ordinary woman who refuses to stay quiet in extraordinary circumstances.
New production images have been released today for the world premiere of Some Woman, a new play by Helen Edmundson (Small Island), directed by Blanche McIntyre (Tartuffe). Anne-Marie Duff (Bad Sisters) plays Julie Robson in the world premiere, which runs at the National Theatre until 21 November 2026.
The play follows ordinary woman Julie Robson, who is used to being overlooked: at work, at home, everywhere in between. But when an encounter on a station platform goes wrong and all eyes are suddenly on her, something shifts within Julie and she feels compelled to make a stand.
