A second actor has quit the Soho Theatre production of 'Right Before I Go' over Dame Maureen Lipman's pro-Israel stance. Trans actress Iz Hesketh announced her decision to withdraw from the stage play on Instagram.
'I was really looking forward to returning to the project, so this was not a decision I have made lightly,' Hesketh said to her more than 31,000 followers. 'Following the casting of Maureen Lipman and having recently become aware of public comments made by her, I no longer feel the next stage of the production aligns with my own personal values and beliefs, and therefore feel that stepping away is the right thing for me to do.'
