Directed by Lisa Spirling, this production will make its UK premiere at the Park Theatre with performances starting next month.
The cast has been announced for How To Fight Loneliness.
Archie Backhouse (Farm Hall, Theatre Royal Haymarket) will play the role of Brad alongside Justina Kehinde (NHS The Musical, Theatre Royal Plymouth) as Jodi and Morgan Watkins (Mother Courage and Her Children, National Theatre) as Tate.
Tony Award-nominated writer Neil LaBute presents a gripping exploration of how we confront life’s toughest moments when time is running out. The play follows Jodi and Brad, a seemingly perfect couple with a beautiful suburban home, a luxury car, and a well-stocked bar. But when an unexpected crisis shakes their world, they turn to someone from Jodi’s past for help, unraveling secrets and testing the limits of their relationship.
Spirling is joined on the creative team by set and costume designer Mona Camille, lighting designer Chuma Emembolu and sound designer Roly Botha.
How To Fight Loneliness will play at the Park Theatre from 16 April - 24 May 2025.
