“Stylish, sleek and sinister… bloomin’ brilliant!” — Sussex Express
The thriller that coined a phrase and made a generation fear a stiletto heel is coming to Hanley. The Regent Theatre hosts the world premiere tour of Single White Female this May, starring Kym Marsh and Lisa Faulkner.
This isn’t just a 90s throwback; it is a bold, modern reimagining for 2026. Updated by acclaimed author Rebecca Reid, this brand-new adaptation drags the story of Allie and Hedy into the era of social media, where the “desperate need for belonging” takes on a gripping new digital edge.
Star Power in Stoke
Two of British television’s most recognisable faces go head-to-head in this “wickedly entertaining” psychological battle.
- Kym Marsh: The Coronation Street star brings “electric energy” to the role of Hedy, capturing the chilling shift from perfect roommate to dangerous obsession.
- Lisa Faulkner: Known for Holby City, Faulkner is “emotionally charged and brilliant” as Allie, a woman whose world begins to unravel behind closed doors.
- Modern Suspense: Moving beyond the original movie, this version explores the isolating world of modern life, ambition, and the fragility of trust.
Note: Critics have hailed this as one of the “must-see thrillers of the year.” Perfect for fans of high-stakes drama and psychological suspense.
