World stage premiere of the psychological thriller based on Thomas Harris's novel, with John Partridge as Hannibal Lecter.
The Silence of the Lambs makes its world stage premiere at Regent Theatre on Tuesday 9 February, with the run continuing until Saturday 13 February. It's the psychological thriller based on Thomas Harris's novel, and the production is written by Gina Gionfriddo and directed by Nikolai Foster.
The story follows FBI trainee Clarice Starling, who interviews the psychiatrist and murderer Hannibal Lecter in the hunt for the serial killer Buffalo Bill. John Partridge takes on the role of Lecter, and the whole thing is billed as a psychological thriller, so it's more about the tension and the mind games than a straightforward police procedural.
There are a few things to keep in mind before you book. The production contains scenes of threat, violence and murder, strong language, sexual references, harassment, mutilation and body horror, and psychological intensity. Because of that, there's age guidance of 15+, and anyone under 16 has to be accompanied by an adult.
