With special guests Emma Thompson, Daryl McCormack & Sophie Hyde!
Watch TrailerWith a fearlessly raw performance from two-time Academy Award winner Emma Thompson, Good Luck To You, Leo Grande provides a refreshing (and hilarious) perspective on sexuality that’s charming, authentic and thought-provoking.
Nancy Stokes (Emma Thompson), a retired school teacher and widow, is yearning for some adventure, some human connection, and some sex. Good sex. Whilst her husband Robert provided a home, a family, something resembling a life, good sex was never on offer. But he’s gone now, and Nancy has a plan: she will find adventure with a sex worker named Leo Grande, charismatically played by newcomer Daryl McCormack (Peaky Blinders).
An empowering portrayal of middle-aged sexuality that’s all too rare, don’t miss your chance to see its brilliant cast and director live on stage!

“Thompson has always been a terrific actor, but she reaches a new plane here, a place where her vulnerability as a person and her confidence as a performer mesh into something glorious..”
– TIME Magazine
“Emma Thompson is truly better than ever and brings to life a complex and evolving person with humor, grace and a sharp edge. McCormack, meanwhile, is a star in the making.”
