Following the huge success of her production of James Graham's Privacy, Artistic Director Josie Rourke will direct the first major revival of Cy Coleman's classic musical CITY OF ANGELS as the Donmar's 2014 Christmas production.

Rourke previously said of the play: "City of Angels is one of the great jazz musicals. I am delighted to be bringing this shimmering, sexy show to the Donmar's stage."

CITY OF ANGELS, with music by Cy Coleman, lyrics by David Zippel and book by Larry Gelbart (Tootsie and M*A*S*H), premiered on Broadway in 1990 and in the West End in 1993. It won both the Tony Award and Olivier Award for Best New Musical, along with multiple other prizes. Featuring one of the great jazz scores, CITY OF ANGELS is a celebration of film noir and Hollywood in black & white and colour.

The production will star Fraser as Stine, returning to the Donmar after his role in Rourke's 2013 production of Coriolanus, and Craig, who will make her debut at the theatre and will play Gabby/Bobbi. Fraser and Craig will be joined in the company by Barks as Mallory/Avril.

Olivier Award-winner Stephen Mear will choreograph the production.
