Lucy Prebble's play ENRON, which recently began a six-week run at London's Royal Court Theatre on September 17, will move to the West End's Noel Coward Theatre on January 16, where it will replace the soon-to-close Calendar Girls.

The production, which premiered this summer at the Chichester Festival, is produced by Headlong, directed by Rupert Goold, and designed by 2009 Tony Award winner Anthony Ward.

The show stars Samuel West, Glllian Budd, Peter Caulfield, Howard Charles, Andrew Corbett, Amanda Drew, Susannah Fellows, Stephen Fewell, Tom Godwin, Tom Goodman-Hill, Orion Lee, Eleanor Matsuura, Tim Pigott-Smith, Ashley Rolfe, and Trevor White.

In related news, Headlong will present a reworking of Jonathan Swift's 18th-century literary satire Gulliver's Travels, revivals of Oscar Wilde's Salome and Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill's Threepenny Opera, Anthony Neilson's Orson Welles in the Land of the Peas, and Mike Bartlett's Earthquakes in London, during its 2009-2010 season.
