Based on Ingmar Bergman's film Smiles of a Summer Night, A Little Night Music is set in a weekend country house in turn of the century Sweden, bringing together surprising liaisons, long simmering passions and a taste of love’s endless possibilities. The story centers on the elegant actress Desirée Armfeldt and the spider’s web of sensuality, intrigue and desire that surrounds her.

This production originated at the Menier Chocolate Factory, where it opened in Dec 2008.  It then transferred to the West End (Garrick) in Mar 2009.  The West End cast included Hannah Waddingham (Desirée), Maureen Lipman (Madame Armfeldt) & Alexander Hanson (Fredrik).
