Tonight's performance of Chimerica cancelled due to "technical issue"

This evening's performance of Chimerica at the Harold Pinter Theatre has been cancelled due to a technical issue.

A press statement reads "At today's matinee of Chimerica at the Harold Pinter Theatre during Act Two there were some technical difficulties with the revolve and sadly the show had to be stopped. As a result tonight's performance has had to be cancelled so all safety checks can be fully carried out before resuming performances tomorrow. Customers are being contacted now and will be offered exchanges or refunds."

Chimerica received its premiere earlier this year at the Almeida Theatre where it has subsequently been acclaimed by critics and audiences alike. The production runs in the West End until 19th October 2013. The cast includes Claudie Blakley, Stephen Campbell Moore (pictured right), Elizabeth Chan, Vera Chok, Karl Collins, Trevor Cooper, Nancy Crane, Sean Gilder, Sarah Lam, Andrew Leung, David K. S. Tse and Benedict Wong.

This evening's performance of The Same Deep Water As Me at the Donmar Warehouse has also been cancelled due to Daniel Mays being "incapacitated by an injury".
