THE FEMALE OF THE SPECIES
Dame Eileen Atkins stars in Joanna Murray's comedy.
Margot Mason, is a feminist literary giant suffering an extreme case of writer's block as deadline after deadline comes and goes on her next book. When a young fan arrives unexpectedly at her country home, Margot's world slowly and comically begins to unravel as family and friends show up and debate the virtues of her best-sellers, her inconsistent world view, and her decidedly un-motherly touch.
