As Peter Pan launches into its final week of rehearsal, full casting is confirmed for our next production, The Seagull.
Joining double Olivier Award-winner Janie Dee, Poldark’s Sabrina Bartlett and Evening Standard Award-winner Matthew Tennyson, director Matthew Dunster has assembled a remarkable cast including: Colin Hoult (Being Human, BBC), Fraser James (Liberian Girl at Royal Court / Law & Order, ITV), Lisa Palfrey (Best Actress, Theatre Critics of Wales Award for Before it Rains at Bristol Old Vic/Sherman Cymru and the film Pride directed by Matthew Warchus), Ian Redford (Antigone at the Royal Exchange, Manchester / New Tricks, BBC) and, as Boris Trigorin, Alex Robertson (who recently starred as Matthew Thorogood in the film The Suspicions of Mr Whicher: The Tie That Binds, and The Village, BBC).
This new version of The Seagull by award-winning writer Torben Betts, commissioned by us in celebration of the play’s 120th anniversary, premieres on 24 June (with previews from 19 June).
