Kristin Scott Thomas and Lia Williams will alternate the female lead roles of Harold Pinter’s Old Times, according to The New York Times. Ian Rickson will direct this planned London revival.
The play involves a couple whose intimate solitude is disturbed when an old friend comes to visit, resulting in competing memories of their fractured pasts. Rufus Sewell will round out the cast.
The production has not yet been officially announced, and the logistics for the role swapping are still being worked out. According to The Times, rehearsals are expected to begin in November for a planned run in early 2013.
