A stellar group of artists will take on Nassim Soleimanpour’s White Rabbit Red Rabbit October 1-19 in the West End at @sohoplace.

The international hit—where performers take the stage with no preparation, no director, and no idea what will greet them as they open a sealed envelope and take out the script—will feature a different actor at each show.

The lineup for the play's West End debut is set to include Freema Agyeman, Olly Alexander, Keith Allen, Mathew Baynton, John Bishop, Alan Davies, Daisy Edgar Jones, Joe Dempsie, Omari Douglas, Alfred Enoch, Kate Fleetwood, Richard Gadd, Jill Halfpenny, Julie Hesmondhalgh, Jason Isaacs, Pearl Mackie, Nick Mohammed, Sally Phillips, Jonathan Pryce, Michael Sheen, Callum Scott Howells, Ben Bailey Smith, Tonia Sotiropoulou, and Catherine Tate.

Forbidden to leave his country, Iranian playwright Soleimanpour transcribed his experience of isolation into this unique stage work. The play premiered at the 2011 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where it won a series of awards. It has since been translated into more than 30 languages and performed globally—including Off-Broadway in 2016 where the performers included Wayne Brady, Darren Criss, Nathan Lane, and Whoopi Goldberg.

Playwright Soleimanpour said in a statement, “It is personal but universal. Funny yet very political. And so timely for the world we live in. We are so excited to present it at this time and in such great company.”

Lambert Jackson and Nassim Soleimanpour Productions produce in association with Nica Burns.
