The Last of the Haussmans October 27, 2012

Broadcast live from London, The Last of the Haussmans is screening at Riverside Theatres live from London, on Sunday, 28 October 2012.

The anarchic, feisty but growing old, high society drop-out Judy Haussman, Judy remains in spirit with the Ashrams of the 1960s while holding court in her dilapidated Art Deco house on the Devon coast. After an operation, she's joined by wayward offspring Nick and Libby, sharp-eyed granddaughter Summer, local doctor Peter, and Daniel, a troubled teenager who makes use of the family's crumbling swimming pool. Together they share a few sweltering months in this chaotic world of all-day drinking, infatuations, long-held resentments, free love and failure.

With an impressive cast including Rory Kinnear, Isabella Laughland, Helen McCrory, Matthew Marsh and one of Britain's best-loved and most versatile actors, Julie Walters, The Last of the Haussmans promises to deliver a truly comical performance.
