The Southbank Centre has said all of its board members have the ‘right to exercise their freedom of expression within the law’.

Irish actress Coughlan will front the comedy show on April 25, while Lou Wood will host on May 2.

Wood will portray George Harrison’s former wife, model and photographer Pattie Boyd, in Sam Mendes’ biopic films about the lives of the Fab Four.

The stars will take to the stage this spring for the performance.

The White Lotus star said Angelina Jolie gave her a thumbs up after speaking out about struggles with crew during filming.

She questioned whether there would be as much focus on her appearance if she was a man.
