Casting announced for Right Now

Casting for the UK premiere of Right Now has been announced.

Directed by Michael Boyd, the production will star Maureen Beattie (The List, Noises Off) as Juliette, Sean Biggerstaff (Solid Air, The Girl with the Red Hair) as Ben, Lindsey Campbell (Nights, The Harvest) as Alice, Dyfan Dwyfor (Candylion, Titus Andronicus) as Francis and Guy Williams (Spanish Tragedy, King Lear) as Giles.

Commenting on the casting, former RSC artistic director Boyd said, "Our challenge to do justice to this heart-breaking, hilarious and disturbing play begins today, and I couldn't feel better equipped than with this brilliant dare-devil cast."

Written by Catherine-Anne Toupin and translated by Chris Campbell, Right Now is a disquieting exploration of one woman's crisis and darkest desires.

The production will run at the Ustinov from 18 February to 19 March before opening at the Bush Theatre in late March. It will then transfer to the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh in April.
