Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges will be making an "e-appearance" in OFF THE KING'S ROAD as a Los Angeles psychiatrist. Neil Koenigsberg's exciting debut play comes to London after successful runs in New York and Los Angeles, running Wednesday 1st - Saturday 25th June 2016.

Press Night: Friday 3rd June, 7.30pm at Jermyn Street Theatre (16b Jermyn Street, London SW1Y 6ST).

OFF THE KING'S ROAD stars Michael Brandon (Episodes, Jerry Springer The Opera, Captain America) and Cherie Lunghi (Excalibur, The Manageress, Strictly Come Dancing). Completing the cast are Luke Pitman and Diana Dimitrovici.

Playwright Neil Koenigsberg comments, "I've known Jeff Bridges both professionally and personally for many years now and when it was suggested by Michael Brandon and director Alan Cohen that we approach him to do an e-appearance as a crucial character in my play, I thought who better but it was a long shot. Now that it's happened, I couldn't be happier. Audiences will get to see Jeff on stage (so to speak) in a funny-sad, rich and endearing performance that enhances all four other actors and the whole production."

After his wife's recent passing, retired American Matt Browne takes a week's respite in his favourite city, London. Checking into a small hotel, off the King's Road, his stay unexpectedly turns into a voyage of self-discovery: life, death and the whole damn thing. Matt
Browne's world turns upside down as his seven day London sojourn tumbles into surprising places that certainly weren't on his agenda.
