Casting has been announced for Land of Our Fathers by Chris Urch, which will transfer to Trafalgar Studios 2 between 3 September and 4 October 2014.

Depicting the dramatic two weeks of a community of Welsh miners trapped down a collapsed coalmine in 1979, the production premiered at Theatre503 last year and is helmed by the venue's artistic director Paul Robinson.

Returning to their roles are Clive Merrison (The History Boys, The English Patient), Kyle Rees (who stars forthcoming film Pride), Patrick Brennan (Accolade), Taylor Jay-Davies (Great Expectations) and Joshua Price (Tribe).

Robert East (Henry IV Parts 1 & 2) joins the West End cast as Hovis.
