Singer Pixie Lott is set to take to the stage at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre in Dublin in the coming weeks as she will star as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
The production is the first UK and Ireland tour of Truman Capote’s classic that Audrey Hepburn starred in back in 1961 and will be run in conjunction with the Curve Theatre, Leicester.
Adapted by award-winning playwright Richard Greenberg, the production will also feature a number of memorable songs.
“The goal of this version is to return to the original setting of the novella, which is the New York of the Second World War, as well as to resume its tone – still stylish and romantic, yes, but rougher-edged and more candid than people generally remember,” Greenberg explained.
Artistic Director of Curve, Nikolai Foster said, “I am thrilled Pixie Lott will lead the company in our production of Richard Greenberg’s beautiful adaptation of Truman Capote’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”
“Developing new audiences for drama and presenting plays which are socially relevant, are things we feel passionately about at Curve.”
The production will run at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre from June 13th to 18th.
