'The show’s glory is Janie Dee. She plays all the layers simultaneously: incredulous and wistful, chilly and carnal. Is she the best actor in Britain? Could be.' David Jays, Sunday Times Culture
'Is there a more enchanting actress on the British stage than Janie Dee? She combines good nature, good humour, an unforced charm and un-selfconscious sensuality with a sense of mischief.'

On the Unexplained Deaths of Several American Icons
Marilyn Monroe. John F. Kennedy. Lee Harvey Oswald. Three deaths that shook America. One woman who refused to stop asking questions.
New York, 1965. Celebrated journalist and television star Dorothy Kilgallen is chasing the biggest story of her career. America has been given its answers. Dorothy doesn’t believe them. Her investigation leads from Hollywood to the White House, from the Kennedy dynasty to the New Orleans underworld — and towards a web of connections between some of the most powerful and dangerous figures in America. But someone wants Dorothy to stop asking questions. And as the threats move ever closer to home, uncovering the truth could cost her everything.
Janie Dee stars as Dorothy Kilgallen in the world premiere of Torben Betts’ gripping new political thriller, directed by Trevor Nunn.
