Tony Award-Winning SKYLIGHT Concludes Limited Run Today

Carey Mulligan and Bill Nighy reprise their critically acclaimed West End performances in the hit London production of David Hare's Skylight at the John Golden Theatre (252 West 45th Street), closing today, Sunday, June 21. Directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Stephen Daldry, SKYLIGHT played to sold-out houses when it opened in the West End in June. It recently won the 2015 Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play.

SKYLIGHT, which also features Matthew Beard, began performances on March 13, at the John GoldenTheatre (252 West 45th Street). Opening night is Thursday, April 2. Skylight has played a 13-week limited engagement through today.

On a bitterly cold London evening, schoolteacher Kyra Hollis (Carey Mulligan) receives an unexpected visit from her former lover, Tom Sergeant (Bill Nighy), a successful and charismatic restaurateur whose wife has recently died. As the evening progresses, the two attempt to rekindle their once passionate relationship, only to find themselves locked in a dangerous battle of opposing ideologies and mutual desires.

SKYLIGHT is designed by Bob Crowley, with lighting design by Natasha Katz, sound design by Paul Arditti, and original music by Paul Englishby.

SKYLIGHT is produced on Broadway by Robert FOX and Scott Rudin.

David Hare's Skylight originally premiered at the National Theatre in London in 1995 before going on to play smash hit engagements in the West End and on Broadway the following year. When the 2014 production of Skylight opened in the West End in June it was praised by critics on both sides of the Atlantic.
