Casting has been announced for a UK-wide tour of The Kite Runner, including a stop at Theatre Royal Brighton this June.

Adapting a novel for the stage is fraught with difficulties; even more so when the novel is a literary sensation that has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. Afghan-American Khaled Hosseini's devastating 2003 first novel, The Kite Runner, has added difficulties as a play, as it spans 30 years and crosses continents in the process. This quietly devastating play debuted in 2013 in the UK at the Nottingham Playhouse and now returns for a country-wide tour.

Several stars from the West End season of The Kite Runner are confirmed to headline the 2020 UK tour, stopping at Richmond Theatre from 10 - 14 March 2020.

The Kite Runner, an unforgettable theatrical tour-de-force, is to tour the UK in 2020 following two acclaimed West End seasons, when it played to over 100,000 people and received standing ovations at every single performance. It will also premiere in Dubai at the 2,000-seat Dubai Opera.

After winning rave reviews at Wyndham's Theatre, receiving standing ovations at every show and captivating an audience of 60,000 theatregoers earlier this year, The Kite Runner has returned to the West End in a strictly limited 8-week season at the Playhouse Theatre. David Ahmad now plays the show's narrator, Amir. New to the West End cast are Ravi Aujla, Umar Pasha Jay Sajjid and Karl Seth. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

The Kite Runner's incredible, critically acclaimed West End stage success continues to soar to new heights!

The Kite Runner, Khaled Hosseini's international bestselling novel and film, is a powerful story of friendship spanning cultures and continents, following one man's journey to find redemption.

Final casting is announced for the West End premiere of The Kite Runner, a thrilling stage production of Khaled Hosseini's award-winning tale of friendship, betrayal and redemption.
