Listen Later

Georgie Henley, best known for her role as Lucy Pevensie in The Chronicles of Narnia, and more recently, The Diplomat (Netflix) and Partygate (Channel 4), will be performing in the Philip Ridley monologue Tarantula at Arcola Theatre throughout January. She first performed the show online for Southwark Playhouse in 2021, but it is now set for its live premiere.

We caught up with Georgie during rehearsals to chat about the joys of working with Philip Ridley, what it's like coming back to a role she first played during lockdown to an empty theatre and what it will be like to finally have an audience present this time around.

Tarantula plays at Arcola Theatre from 8 - 25 January. Further information and tickets available here.
