The Tricycle Theatre has confirmed the complete cast for A Wolf In Snakeskin Shoes, which runs from October 8.

Lucian Msamati (Othello - RSC, The Amen Corner, The Comedy of Errors - National Theatre) will play the flamboyant preacher Tardimus Toof, alongside the Olivier Award-winning Sharon D. Clarke (We Will Rock You, Hairspray - West End,Everyman, The Amen Corner - National Theatre) as Lady Toof.

Joining them, Wil Johnson plays multi-millionaire Archibald Organdy, with Adjoa Andoh as his fiancée Peaches, Ayesha Antoine as his daughter Afreeka and Karl Queensborough as Gumper.

Completing the cast, Angela Winter plays Mother Organdy, and Michelle Bonnard plays Maxine.

Award winning playwright Marcus Gardley returns to the Tricycle Theatre following 2014's critically-acclaimed The House That Will Not Stand. This fresh take on Molière's Tartuffe, set in a world of fast-food tycoons and megachurches is a wicked new comedy that rocks the foundations of trust, faith and redemption. Lucian Msamati stars at Archbishop Tardimus Toof alongside Sharon D. Clarke as Lady Toof.

Given just days to live, multi-millionaire Archibald Organdy rejects costly experimental treatment and opts to face his end surrounded by his loving family. However, things could be about to change.

Arriving in Atlanta the flamboyant Archbishop Tardimus Toof, a prophet, preacher and part-time masseur promises to absolve Archibald's sins and heal his disease. But his family suspect there's more to this healer than faith, virtue and snakeskin shoes.

The Tricycle Theatre's Olivier-Award winning Artistic Director Indhu Rubasingham (Multitudes, Red Velvet, Handbagged, The House That Will Not Stand) directs.
