Zoe Wanamaker will headline a West End revival of Peter Nichols' dark 1981 comedy Passion Play. The production, which will be directed by David Leveaux, will open at the Duke of York's Theatre on 7th May 2013 with previews from 1st May. The production will run for a limited time ending on 3rd August following a short regional tour to Richmond Theatre and the Theatre Royal Brighton.
Passion Play charts the collapse of a 25-year of marriage, as a successful man still in love with his wife is attracted to a younger and sexually voracious woman whose temptations he's unable to resist. As trust collapses, husband and wife Eleanor and James are left floundering and exposed.
