Phil Dunster to star in 'Brace Brace' at the Royal Court
The Off-West End theatre has set the full cast for Oil Forsyth's drama, directed by Daniel Raggett, playing for a limited run beginning in October.
The Royal Court has set the complete cast for its upcoming production of Brace Brace, a new play written by Oil Forsyth and directed by Daniel Raggett. Performances run from 3 October to 2 November, with opening night on 9 October.
The complete cast includes Phil Dunster (Ted Lasso), Craige Els (Just For One Day), and Anjana Vasan (We Are Lady Parts).
“I’m a very lucky boy," Dunster said in a statement. "Performing at the Royal Court has, of course, always been a total dream of mine and to be doing it alongside the brilliant Anjana Vasan, under Dan Raggett’s watchful eye and Oli Forsyth’s pulsating script does feel like an embarrassment of riches.”
"I am very excited to be making my debut at the Royal Court in this dynamic new piece of theatre,” said Els.
“I’m so excited to start rehearsing Oli Forsyth’s brilliant and surprising play, with this incredibly talented team," said Vasan.
Brace Brace takes place in the aftermath of a plane hijacking, which caused the aircraft to crash. Two survivors struggle to reconcile their responses to the event — and the cracks that appear in their relationship as a result.
