The hit production of What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank is set to return to the Marylebone Theatre early next year for a limited 4-week run, from 20 January 2025 until 15 February 2025.
Currently playing until 23 November, the production will make way for A Sherlock Carol during the festive season, before resuming performances in January.
The entire cast will reprise their roles including: West Wing and Scandal star Joshua Malina as Phil, Caroline Catz (Doc Martin, DCI Banks) as Debbie, Dorothea Myer-Bennett (Leopoldstadt, Nachtland) as Shoshana, Simon Yadoo (The School for Scandal, Love’s Labour’s Lost) as Yerucham, and Gabriel Howell (The Unfriend, How to Train Your Dragon) as Trevor.
The role of Shoshana will be played by Mercedes Bahleda (Morning Light) from 20 – 25 January inclusive.
Directed by Tony Award winner Patrick Marber (The Producers, Leopoldstadt), the play explores the dynamics between two Jewish couples – one secular, the other ultra-Orthodox – and is based on Nathan Englander’s acclaimed short story collection What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank, first published in 2012.
Patrick Marber said, “I’m very pleased Nathan’s beautiful play will have more life next year. I’m very grateful to all at Wild Yak, Marylebone Theatre and our brilliant company of actors for making this happen.”
Nathan Englander said, “I’m so thrilled to be extending our run at the Marylebone Theatre. It’s been such an extraordinary home for the play. An amazing theatre space, filled with the warmest, most open-hearted audiences.”
What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank is directed by Patrick Marber, with design by Anna Fleischle, lighting design by Sally Ferguson and sound design by David Gregory. Associate direction is by Natalie Simone, with movement direction from EJ Boyle and costume supervision by Chantal Short. Casting advisor is Helena Palmer.
