The much anticipated revival of David Hare's Skylight directed by Stephen Daldry sees Bill Nighy reprise his performance as Tom opposite Carey Mulligan as Kyra in her West End debut. Set in Kyra's grotty Kensal Rise flat (Bob Crowley's open plan design set against a backdrop of high rise council flats), Skylight is an intense play dealing with broken relationships, love and loss.
