Jim Cartwright's Road opens at the Royal Court on Friday and WhatsOnStage have been given a first look at images of the cast in action.

Directed by John Tiffany, Cartwright's seminal play is about a group of people who live on the same road in a working class area of Lancashire during Margaret Thatcher's government.

The cast includes Michelle Fairley (The Wild Duck, Donmar), Mark Hadfield (The Libertine), Faye Marsay (Black Mirror) and Mike Noble (Game, Almeida).

They are joined by Shane Zaza, Liz White, June Watson, Dan Parr and Lemn Sissay.

Road runs at the Royal Court until 9 September.
