The Wicked Lady

Lady Barbara Skelton is beautiful, wild and truly wicked. Forced into a respectable marriage with a man she can't love, she soon becomes bored and embarks on a secret life of gambling, highway robbery and murder. But she's playing a dangerous game. Shadowed by betrayal, threatened by revenge, can Barbara escape her wicked life? Or will she be abandoned to a terrible fate? Gainsborough Studios made Magdalen King-Hall's historical novel into an unusually racy costume drama starring Margaret Lockwood and James Mason, The Wicked Lady, which became the top-grossing British movie of 1946. This stage adaptation incorporates aerial sequences created with the help of specialist company, Upswing.
