Fleabag Triumphantly Returns To The West End, With An A-List Standing Ovation

Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Fleabag has triumphantly returned to the West End for its final run.

The one woman show was attended by Killing Eve stars Sandra Oh and Fiona Shaw, as well as Elle Fanning and her boyfriend Max Minghella, along with A-list Bohemian Rhapsody couple Rami Malek and Lucy Boynton.

Fleabag characters The Hot Priest (aka Andrew Scott) and Fleabag's sister Claire (Sian Clifford) also attended the press night at London's Wyndham's Theatre.

The show, which debuted six years ago at the Edinburgh Fringe, proved a hit with the audience, as Phoebe was given a standing ovation.

Critics also enjoyed the show, with overwhelmingly positive reviews appearing in newspapers.

The Guardian awarded the show four stars, writing that although the show has been 'over-hyped' 'it offers 'a remarkable portrait of a modern woman who shamelessly bares her soul and in so doing reveals her essential solitude.'

The Independent also gave the performance four stars, saying, 'Waller-Bridge is a compelling performer, and a little over an hour in her company is a treat.'

Again, The Times said the show deserved four stars, writing that 'Waller-Bridge is brilliant at playing the original Fleabag, a sex-obsessed and hard-drinking twentysomething who creates a trail of mayhem wherever she goes.'
