Producers have announced the cast for the English language premiere of major new musical Marie Curie, with Book & Lyrics by Seeun Choun, Music by Jongyoon Choi, Directed by Sarah Meadows, at London’s Charing Cross Theatre.

Production images have been released today for the world premiere of Mike Bartlett’s new comedy and irreverent satire Scandaltown directed by Artistic Director Rachel O’Riordan at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre ahead of opening night for press on Thursday 14 April. 

The first image has been released today of the full company of Scandaltown, a brand new comedy and irreverent satire by award-winning writer Mike Bartlett (BBC's Doctor Foster) directed by the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre's Artistic Director Rachel O'Riordan (Olivier Award winning Killology) who reunite following their critically acclaimed 2020 revival of Love, Love, Love.

Full casting is announced today for Scandaltown, a brand new comedy by Mike Bartlett (Doctor Foster, King Charles III) directed by the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre's Artistic Director Rachel O'Riordan.

Joining the previously announced Kirsty Besterman (Constance Wicksteed), Jasper Britton (Arthur Wicksteed), Matthew Cottle (Canon Throbbing), Ria Jones (Mrs Swabb), Thomas Josling (Dennis Wicksteed), Caroline Langrishe (Lady Rumpers), Catherine Russell (Muriel Wicksteed) and Abdul Salis (Mr Shanks), are Katie Bernstein (Felicity Rumpers), Kelvin O'Mard (Mr Purdue) and Dan Starkey (Sir Percy).

The antics of the Wicksteed home are a darkly satirical merry-go-round in Alan Bennett's Habeas Corpus.  Family, friends and the quest for sexual pleasures of the body (“corpus”) are the ruling passions in this farcical comedy of ill-manners. Through an escapade of mistaken identities and carnal encounters, one motto holds fast: “He whose lust lasts, lasts longest.”
