Some Woman tickets
About Some Woman
Julie Robson is used to being overlooked. At work, at home, everywhere in between.
But when an encounter on a station platform goes wrong and all eyes are suddenly on Julie, something shifts within her and she feels compelled to make a stand.
What happens when an ordinary woman pits herself against the forces that shape the world? What happens when she refuses to be quiet?
Anne-Marie Duff (Bad Sisters) is Julie in this provocative new play from Helen Edmundson (Small Island), directed by Blanche McIntyre (Tartuffe).
For assisted performances, please book directly through the National Theatre.

Anne-Marie Duff is excellent in this production but is unfortunately let down by uneven writing and an underwhelming supporting cast. Feels like a soap opera at times. That being said, a lot of the audience seemed to really enjoy it based on their reaction.
It’s not easy theme to watch but so true and relatable. All actors are brilliant.
A play about an overlooked woman who finally stands up for herself.
