The full cast has been announced for Lynn Nottage’s Intimate Apparel, which begins previews at the Donmar Warehouse in London on 20 June, running until 9 August.

Joining the previously announced Samira Wiley as Esther are Nicola Hughes as Mrs Dickson, Claudia Jolly as Mrs Van Buren, Kadiff Kirwan as George, Faith Omole as Mayme, and Alex Waldmann as Mr Marks.

The production reunites double Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Lynn Nottage with director Lynette Linton following their productions of Sweat and Clyde’s for the Donmar.

Set in New York in 1905, Intimate Apparel follows seamstress Esther, who is fiercely independent but also longs to fall in love. When she begins to receive beautiful letters from a stranger, it she wonders whether she's also found her happy ending.
