Images have been released showing Adam James, Eleanor Matsuura, Sam Troughton and Neil Stuke in preparation for the Young Vic production of Mike Bartlett's comic play Bull.

Due to popular demand, the production – which has its first preview tonight, 8 January – has been extended until 14 February 2015.

Three colleagues battle over just two jobs in Mike Bartlett’s sharp shock of a play. In a cutthroat office environment, where every word is a weapon, playground tactics quickly escalate into manoeuvres of a far more vicious nature. The detailed drama plays out in a workplace-come-bullfighting ring designed by Soutra Gilmour. Audiences surround the stage on all sides and can observe the fight from close quarters by choosing standing tickets.

Winner of the UK Theatre Award for Best New Play 2013 (Crucible Theatre, Sheffield), in the same year Bull transferred to 59E59 in New York where it played as part of the Brits Off-Broadway season starring the London company.
