Images have been released showing the cast of Our Town in rehearsals for the play's UK premiere at the Almeida Theatre next month.
David Cromer directs and performs in his "intimate version" of Thornton Wilder's American play and is joined in the cast by Michael Ajao, Paul Bigley, Arthur Byrne, Sidney Cole, Kate Dickie, Laura Elsworthy, Anna Francolini, Matthew Jacobs-Morgan, Daniel Kendrick, Simon Lennon, Jessica Lester, Richard Lumsden, Annette McLaughlin, Christopher Staines, Rhashan Stone and David Walmsley.
Cromer's production of Our Town ran for over a year at the Barrow Street Theatre in New York where it won multiple awards.
Performed on a bare stage with minimal props, the play sees two people fall in love, marry, and live out their lives as a small American town which becomes an allegory for everyday life.
