Thesy Surface and Julia Sopher on Lady Montagu Unveiled
Lady Montagu Unveiled promises us a blend of Gossip Girl, Bridgerton, with dashes of Hamilton. What’s not to like about that combination.
Throw in Thesy Surface, an actor with some fine pedigree, including a recurring role in It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia as the rather disturbing and monobrowed Margaret McPoyle. But she’s given up the glamour of working in America to bring her one woman show to Camden Fringe. She reckons Lady Montagu Unveiled will be the hippest historical stage memoir in town, and who are we to disagree?
Joiing Thesy to talk about the joys of bringing this show to London is director Julia Sopher.
The show comes to The Courtyard Theatre for three performances only – 23/24th at 8.30pm and 25th at 1.30pm. Further information and bookings available here.
Lady Montagu Unveiled
Thesy Surface, from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” takes on Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, in a fresh one-woman show that blends Gossip Girl, Bridgerton, with dashes of Hamilton.
Lady M was the original OG influencer, dazzling us with her ever-evolving style, travels and sharp wit. This binge-worthy biopic will immerse you in Lady M’s 18th century letters- juicy DMs of her time- full of cultural and societal gossip. Our Leading Lady shattered norms and set new blazing benchmarks.
Lady Montagu Unveiled is an empowering, energy-packed, must-see about a truly unique life. Don’t miss the hippest historical stage memoir in town!
