Full casting announced for major West End revival of Mojo starring Rupert Grint

In July it was confirmed that Rupert Grint will make his West End debut in Jez Butterworth’s award-winning play Mojo alongside Brendan Coyle (Mickey), Daniel Mays (Potts) and Ben Whishaw (Baby).

It has now been announced that the cast will also feature Colin Morgan (Skinny) and Tom Rhys Harries (Silver Johnny).

Ian Rickson will direct the production which opens at the Harold Pinter Theatre on 13th November 2013 (previews from 26th October) and runs until 25th January 2014. 

Mojo will reunite the director and writer who previously collaborated on the play’s world premiere at the Royal Court in 1995. Designs are by Ultz with lighting by Charles Balfour, music by Stephen Warbeck and sound by Simon Baker. 

Mojo is produced in the West End by Sonia Friedman Productions who also produced Butterworth and Rickson’s internationally-acclaimed Jerusalem.

Set against the fledgling rock 'n' roll scene of 50s Soho, this savagely funny play delves into the sleazy underworld and power games of London's most infamous district. Mojo was the recipient of the 1996 Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Comedy with Jez Butterworth winning the Evening Standard and Critics’ Circle Awards for Most Promising Playwright.

Rupert Grint (Sweets) is making his professional theatre debut in Mojo. In addition to playing Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter series of films, his screen credits include The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman, Into the White, Wild Target, Cherrybomb and Driving Lessons as well as the upcoming CBGB. Grint’s television credits include Super Clyde and Come Fly With Me.
