ABOUT THE SHOW:

Starring Olivier Award-winning actress Tamsin Greig (Episodes, Green Wing), the smart new musical comedy Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown is now playing at the West End’s Playhouse Theatre.

On the streets of Madrid, a city pulsing with art, industry, and passion, Pepa’s world is unravelling. Her lover leaves her. And then she meets his wife. And his son. And his new girlfriend. Meanwhile, Pepa’s best friend is tangled up in her own romantic crisis with a suspected criminal, leaving Pepa with only the taxi driver to help navigate the Gran Vía ahead.

Adapted from Pedro Almodóvar’s Oscar-nominated film, the colour and chaos of Pepa’s Madrid is now lighting up the London stage.

Originally based by Almodóvar on Jean Cocteau’s The Human Voice, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown was his first international hit. It captured a liberated Spain, placing women at the centre of their own experience. Pepa, Candela and Lucia became iconic, showing women struggling for power over their own lives, and with enormous humour and style. It also marked the breakout of one of our most important and unique international film directors.
