The Smile of Her at Marylebone Theatre

The Smile of Her arrives at Marylebone Theatre as a deeply personal and thought-provoking new play written and performed by Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Emmy-winning actress Christine Lahti.

Combining humour, honesty, and emotional intensity, this intimate production explores a woman’s journey through changing expectations, personal struggles, and the search for self-expression.

Tracing a life from the American suburbs of the 1950s to a rapidly transforming world, The Smile of Her examines the pressures placed on women, the expectations of family and society, and the lasting impact of being shaped into the “perfect” version of yourself. With warmth and vulnerability, Lahti reflects on ambition, motherhood, identity, and the courage required to challenge the roles others create for us.

Directed by Mêlisa Annis, this limited London run offers audiences a rare opportunity to experience Christine Lahti’s acclaimed storytelling and a moving exploration of resilience and self-discovery.
