The new play from the playwright behind the Olivier Award-winning musical Standing at the Sky's Edge opens next month.
The cast of Otherland at Almeida Theatre.
Joining the previously announced Jade Anouka, Jackie Clune, Fizz Sinclair and Amanda Wilkin in the world premiere of Otherland are Danielle Fiamanya (The Secret Life of Bees, Almeida), Laura Hanna (Bindweed, Arcola/Mercury Theatre), Beth Hinton-Lever (Hadestown, Lyric Theatre) and Serena Manteghi (English, RSC/Kiln Theatre).
Otherland follows Jo and Harry as they navigate the complexities of separating from one another. As they step into new relationships, explore fresh identities, and embrace unexpected possibilities, they begin to uncover the women they aspire to become—and confront whether they have the courage, or the freedom, to make it a reality.
Directed by Ann Yee, the creative team includes Set Designer: Fly Davis, Costume Designer Milla Clarke, Lighting Designer Anna Watson, Sound Designer Pete Malkin, Composer and Music Supervisor Jennifer Whyte and Casting Director Amy Ball CDG.
Otherland will run at the Almeida Theatre from 12 February to 15 March 2025.
