SYNOPSIS

PALACE CINEMAS & THE CUNARD BRITISH FILM FESTIVAL CORDIALLY INVITES YOU TO A VERY SPECIAL Q&A PREVIEW EVENT FOR THE CRITICALLY-ADORED GOOD LUCK TO YOU, LEO GRANDE, FEATURING THE STAR OF THE FILM, EMMA THOMPSON, LIVE IN PERSON – ALONG WITH FELLOW STAR, DARYL MCCORMACK & DIRECTOR, SOPHIE HYDE! THESE SPECIAL EVENTS INCLUDE A GLASS OF PROSECCO ON ARRIVAL! With a fearlessly raw performance from two-time Academy Award winner Emma Thompson, Good Luck To You, Leo Grande provides a refreshing (and hilarious) perspective on sexuality that’s charming, authentic and thought-provoking. Nancy Stokes (Emma Thompson), a retired school teacher and widow, is yearning for some adventure, some human connection, and some sex. Good sex. Whilst her husband Robert provided a home, a family, something resembling a life, good sex was never on offer. But he’s gone now, and Nancy has a plan: she will find adventure with a sex worker named Leo Grande, charismatically played by newcomer Daryl McCormack (Peaky Blinders). An empowering portrayal of middle-aged sexuality that’s all too rare, don’t miss your chance to see its brilliant cast and director live on stage!
