Old Vic to stage Daniel Kitson's Tree & Cole Porter's High Society

It has been announced that the Old Vic are staging productions of Tree by Daniel Kitson and Cole Porter's High Society.

Tim Key and Daniel Kitson will star in Tree between 5th and 31st January. Marking the play's London premiere, it will be performed in the round. It’s early evening in the middle of autumn, it’s just starting to get dark and on a quiet residential street a man with a picnic basket, arrives late, at a tree.

Tree was originally written by Kitson in his house during August of 2013, before being re-written, learnt, and rehearsed with Key at Battersea Arts Centre. It was later designed and staged at the Manchester Royal Exchange.
