Grace Pervades in London is a rich and outstandingly witty drama that dives headfirst into the lives of two of the biggest stars of the British-Victorian stage, as well as the children who came after them and inherited the limelight. Fiennes plays Irving, an actor whose life was consumed by the theatre, while Raison plays Terry, an illustrious actress whose talent and personal interests fascinated the public endlessly. In partnership with each other, they drastically transformed the British theatre-scape, but this story is just as much about sacrifice as it is about fame.
With Jeremy Herrin directing and a world-class creative team behind him, including designer Bob Crowley, costume designer Fotini Dimou, and music by Paul Englishby, this production brings sharp insight to the minds and hearts of its audiences.
