With the annual family festive pantomime, Aladdin, about to start its run of 50 performances, thoughts turn to Spring and an exciting season of productions at Darlington Hippodrome and the adjoining Hullabaloo.

After a successful first year, Rain Man, the inaugural production of Bill Kenwright's Classic Screen to Stage Theatre Company, has extended its run into 2019 with a new star cast. Paul Nicholls will play Raymond Babbit, joined by Chris Fountain as Charlie Babbitt.

The English countryside in crisis, a couple grieving the death of their son and the fox as the deadly enemy of man. First seen to critical acclaim in 2011 at the Finborough Theatre, Dawn King's darkly compelling, dystopian play Foxhunter comes to the West End in a rather disappointing revival, lacking in sufficient tension or drama.

Iwan Rheon (Game of Thrones' Ramsay Bolton, Misfits), Heida Reed (Poldark), Paul Nicholls (Law & Order, EastEnders) and Bryony Hannah (Call the Midwife) star in the West End premiere of Dawn King's award-winning thriller Foxfinder. Book tickets here from £20!

London is never short of temptations, whether splashy West End shows, epic dramas or bold fringe offerings. From a new hip-hop history lesson to Pinter and Shakespeare, here are some of this month's most eye-catching openings. Don't forget to check back for BroadwayWorld reviews, interviews and features!

Full casting is announced for Foxfinder's West End premiere which begins performances at the Ambassadors Theatre on 6 September and will play a strictly limited season until 5 January. Olivier nominee Bryony Hannah (Call the Midwife) and Paul Nicholls (Law & Order, The C-Word, EastEnders) will join the previously announced Heida Reed (Poldark) and Olivier winner Iwan Rheon (Game of Thrones' Ramsay Bolton, Misfits) in Dawn King's unsettling and darkly comic drama.
