Lazarus by David Bowie and Enda Walsh is to receive its London premiere at the Kings Cross Theatre in London later this year.
Inspired by the book, The Man Who Fell To Earth, Lazarus focuses on Thomas Newton, as he remains still on Earth – a ‘man’ unable to die, his head soaked in cheap gin and haunted by a past love. We follow Newton during the course of a few days where the arrival of another lost soul – might set him finally free.
Lazarus debuted at the New York Theatre Workshop from in 2015 and sold out in record time.
Reprising their roles from the original New York production are Michael C Hall, Michael Esper and Sophia Anne Caruso. Full casting will be announced at a later date.
Lazarus will run at the Kings Cross Theatre from 25 October 2016 – 22 January 2017.
