Hampstead Theatre in London has announced the cast and creative team for their world premiere of Fatherland by Nancy Farino.
Fatherland is playing at Hampstead Theatre from 31 October to 29 November 2025.
Billed as a sharp, tender and darkly funny new play about the chaos of connection, Fatherland is directed by Tessa Walker (Ravenscourt).
The production stars Nancy Farino as Joy, with Jason Thorpe (The Merry Wives of Windsor, RSC) as Winston, and Shona Babayemi (A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare’s Globe).
Fatherland marks the writing debut of Nancy Farino who graduated from Hampstead Theatre’s INSPIRE programme for emerging playwrights earlier this year.
Joining Tessa Walker in the creative team are designer Debbie Duru, lighting designer Christopher Nairne, sound designer Khalil Madovi and movement director Rebecca Wield.
Fatherland is running at Hampstead Theatre in North London from 31 October to 29 November 2025.
