Casting has been revealed for Shining City at Theatre Royal Stratford East.

Conor McPherson's piece first appeared at the Royal Court in 2004, and now returns in a new production directed by the east London theatre's artistic director Nadia Fall. Set in Dublin, it follows a recently widowed man who believes he's being haunted by his dead wife.

Joining the previously revealed Brendan Coyle in the show will be Curtis-Lee Ashqar, Michelle Fox and Rory Keenan.

The show is designed by Peter McKintosh with lighting by Howard Harrison, sound by Alexandra Faye Braithwaite and movement by Jack Murphy.
