Nick Moran has been announced to star in a new revival of Harold Pinter's Betrayal at Exeter’s Northcott Theatre in February.

Moran, who was recently seen in Roaring Trade at the Park Theatre and whose credits include Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, will be joined by Sarah-Jane Potts and Simon Merrells.

The production will be the venue’s first fully in-house production in six years. The theatre stopped producing work in 2009 when it was hit with financial troubles, but new artistic and executive director Paul Jepson reported last year it would begin to self-produce again.

Jepson said he was "delighted to be working with such a fantastic cast", adding: "Betrayal is a fabulous play. Funny, touching and incredibly balanced. A play about people breaking out and having what they want and then finding out they still aren’t happy."

Betrayal will run at the Northcott Theatre from 18 February to 5 March.
