Full cast for Copenhagen with Alex Kingston revealed

The full cast and creative team have been confirmed for a new production of Michael Frayn’s Copenhagen at Hampstead Theatre.

The production will run on the venue’s main stage from 27 March to 2 May, with direction by Michael Longhurst. The play receives its first London revival since its premiere in 1998.

Damien Molony will play Heisenberg, Alex Kingston will play Margrethe, while Richard Schiff will play Bohr.

Inspired by real events, the multi-award-winning play centres on a meeting between physicists Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg. Set in 1941 during the Second World War, the story follows Heisenberg’s visit to Copenhagen to see his former mentor and collaborator Bohr.

The creative team for the production includes designer Joanna Scotcher, lighting designer Neil Austin, sound designer Richard Hammarton and casting director Jim Carnahan.
