Sigourney Weaver, Jamie Lloyd & more | The Tempest opening night in London's West End

Описание: Last night a storm was brewing at Theatre Royal Drury Lane as WhatsOnStage was on hand to meet and greet the cast of The Tempest at the official opening of the new Jamie Lloyd production.

We got the lowdown from Lloyd, his leading lady – and Hollywood icon – Sigourney Weaver (Alien, Ghostbusters, Avatar), who plays Prospero in the piece, and her fellow castmates Mason Alexander Park (Ariel), Mara Huf (Miranda), James Phoon (Ferdinand), Jude Akuwudike (Alonso), Forbes Masson (Caliban), Jason Barnett (Stephano) and Selina Cadell (Gonzalo), after the curtain call.
