Shakespeare’s Globe announces one-off event
On 20 February 2020, the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse will host Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell My Daughter About Men, a new black comedy by actor and writer Lorien Haynes, directed by Tara Fitzgerald (Brassed Off, Game of Thrones), which traces a woman’s relationship history backwards, exploring the impact of sexual assault, addiction and teen pregnancy on her adult relationships. Presented in association with RISE and The Circle, all profits from this event will go towards supporting survivors of sexual violence. Thanks in huge part to RISE’s work, the event will also mark the planned introduction of the Worldwide Sexual Violence Survivor Rights United Nations Resolution in January 2020, which addresses the global issue of sexual violence and pens into existence the civil rights of millions of survivors.
Cast for Everything I Ever Wanted to Tell My Daughter About Men will include Tate Donovan (Argo, Rocketman), Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter, The OA), Lorien Haynes, Jonathan Firth (Victoria and Albert), Joe Sims (Broadchurch), Charlie Field (Poldark), Enzo Cilenti (Bridget Jones’ Baby), and Belinda Stewart-Wilson (The In-Betweeners).
Nobel-Prize nominee and founder of Rise, Amanda Nguyen, will introduce the evening.
