The stage production was directed by Sarah Frankcom, artistic director of the Royal Exchange; the film version is directed by Margaret Williams and produced by Anne Beresford of MJW PRODUCTIONS LTD. and Debbie Gray of Genesius Pictures. This is the team behind a number of projects including the film version of Britten’s opera Peter Grimes on Aldeburgh Beach.
Williams has worked regularly in stage-to-screen transfers, including a film version of the Royal Opera House's Written on Skin that recently won the Gramophone Contemporary Award and the Diapason d’or.
