We chatted to Kym Marsh who is starring in Single White Female coming to the Manchester Opera House on Feb 10th - 14th 2026. Karen Ryder asks the questions.
Based on the iconic 90’s psychological thriller, the world premiere stage production of Single White Female is a bold and modern reimagining of the best-selling book and hit movie, that coined a phrase and led a generation to fear a stiletto heel!
Starring the multi-talented Kym Marsh (Coronation Street, Waterloo Road, Abigail’s Party) and actress and presenter Lisa Faulkner (Holby City, Murder In Suburbia, John and Lisa’s Weekend Kitchen), Single White Female invites us into a world where trust is fragile, friendships are tested, and secrets lurk behind every closed door.
Full of dark humour and stiletto-sharp suspense, this brand new adaptation by well known author, journalist and broadcaster, Rebecca Reid, updates the original story to the age of social media and all that brings, in a gripping tale of ambition, obsession, and the desperate need for belonging in an isolating world.
Allie is a recently divorced mum, balancing being a single parent with the launch of her tech start up. When she decides to advertise for a lodger to help make ends meet, the delightful Hedy offers her a lifeline. But as their lives intertwine, boundaries blur, and a seemingly perfect arrangement begins to unravel.
From the producer of the hit stage adaptation of The Girl on the Train, Single White Female will captivate, shock, and keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
Don’t miss this unforgettable theatrical experience that explores just how far we’ll go to find—and keep—a family together.
