Full casting has been announced for the West End production of The Sunshine Boys at the Savoy Theater, starring the previously reported Richard Griffths and Danny DeVito. This production, directed by Thea Sharrock, will begin performances on April 27 with press night on May 17, and run until July 28.

The play centers on the aging vaudevillian team of Willie Clark (DeVito) and Al Lewis (Griffiths), who haven’t spoken in years, and what happens when they receive a call that they’re to re-unite for a TV special.

The rest of the cast includes Rebecca Blackstone (Miss MacKintosh), Nick Blakeley (Eddie), Peter Cadden (Voice of TV Director), Johnnie Fiori (Registered Nurse), Adam Levy (Ben Silverman) and William Maxwell (Patient).

The production is designed by Hildegard Bechtler with lighting by Neil Austin, music by Adrian Johnston and sound by Ian Dickinson for Autograph.
