Cast Update for Passion Play at Duke of York's Theatre

Cast update for Peter Nichols’ black comedy Passion Play, which opens at the Duke of York's Theatre 7 May 2013, following previews from 1 May - booking to 3 Aug 2013.

Joining previously mentioned Zoe Wanamaker (Eleanor), are Owen Teale (James), Samantha Bond (Nell), Oliver Cotton (Jim), Sian Thomas (Agnes), Annabel Scholey (Kate).

It is directed by David Leveaux, and produced by Tali Pelman Productions and the Ambassador Theatre Group and Old Vic Productions.

Comfortably married for 25 years, James and Eleanor’s world is upended when James agrees to a secret rendezvous with their recently widowed friend, Kate. As the lies mount up, the affair strips the marriage bare and reveals the illicit desires and hidden passions that lie beneath the everyday facade.
