Actress Adjoa Andoh, famed for her role as Lady Danbury in Bridgerton, is set to grace the stage, appearing alongside notable figures such as Oscar nominee Jessie Buckley and Mark Gatiss, in Tim Crouch’s innovative play “An Oak Tree.

The show is set to run at London’s Young Vic Theatre from May 6 through May 24. Notably, this performance coincides with the play’s 20-year anniversary.

Besides the previously mentioned actors, Arthur Darvill known for his role in Broadchurch, Julie Hesmondhalgh from Mr. Bates vs The Post Office, and Alex Lawther who starred in The End of the F**ing World will perform as guest artists. They will join Tim Crouch in a one-of-a-kind theatrical event that promises audience engagement.

To clarify, Buckley appeared in the movie “The Lost Daughter,” whereas Gatiss played a significant role in the critically praised series “The League of Gentlemen.

In this upcoming lineup, you’ll find a stellar cast, including Sope Dirisu from Gangs of London and Michelle Terry, known for her role in Tribes. Additionally, another talented actor from Bridgerton, Luke Thompson, will join the production. He’ll be working alongside Russell Tovey, famous for Being Human, and Indira Varma, a familiar face from Game of Thrones.

As reported by Variety, it won’t be known who the performers are until they take the stage every evening.

As a fervent admirer, I’m simply captivated by the masterpiece known as “An Oak Tree,” skillfully crafted by Tim Crouch. What sets this play apart is its innovative approach to performance, rooted in the intriguing technique called “cold reading.” In this unique production, actors grace the stage without prior knowledge of the script—a testament to their raw talent and adaptability. Remarkably, each actor appears only once during the entire run, adding a layer of mystery and anticipation that makes every performance truly one-of-a-kind.

Based on available information, over 350 different artists have graced our stage as guests since the theater’s opening in 2005.
