Rise & Fall of Little Voice Theatre Break

The Rise and Fall of Little Voice premiered in 1992 at the Royal National Theatre and then transferred to the Aldwych Theatre. It was nominated for six Olivier Awards, and the play won both The Evening Standard and Olivier awards for Best Comedy of the Year.

The Rise and Fall of Little Voice is a savage black comedy-drama about painfully shy, diminutive Little Voice (LV), who lives alone in the north of England with her mother, Mari. Maris drunken, overbearing personality has driven LV into seclusion in her bedroom, where she listens to her late fathers records and has perfected faultless impersonations of the greatest divas, including Judy Garland and Dame Shirley Bassey. When Maris latest boyfriend, small-time working mens club impresario Ray Say, overhears LV singing, he puts in place a tragic sequence of events as he pushes her towards stardom she doesnt want and is literally terrified of.
