Starring the multi award-winning duo of Nicholas Ellenbogen and Claire Berlein, Live With Ivy journeys from Nyasaland (Malawi) in the 1950s to London’s West End in the 1980s. The Garrick family have been actors for generations – but young Ivy is caught between choosing law or following in her uncle Rex’s footsteps on the stage. This lyrical story gently guides you down the lanes of African nostalgia through the eyes of Ivy, who starts off as an innocent 11-year-old girl and follows her through the most memorable seasons of her life.
