Christmas Gala Performance of The Hypochondriac

Thursday 1 December 2005

On 1 December 2005, a host of Almeida Supporters gathered at the Almeida for a special performance of Moliere’s The Hypochondriac.

Lindsay Posner’s fantastic cast – including Henry Goodman, Lyndsey Marshal, Ronni Ancona and Kris Marshall – wowed the audience onstage, before joining them for a glamorous post–show party at Islington’s Victoria Miro Gallery.

Whilst guests sipped kiwi martinis and feasted on delicious boeuf bourguignon and space dust crackle cones, Griff Rhys Jones and Gala chair Saffron Burrows presided over an auction, raising over £50,000 towards the theatre’s annual running costs.
