Daniel Craig will star in a one-night-only reading of Caryl Churchill's A Number, which will serve as a benefit for New York Theatre Workshop. The event will take place March 10 at 7pm. Sam Gold will direct.

A Number explores the subject of human cloning and follows the conflict between a father and his three sons, two of whom are clones of the first one. Craig originated the roles of the sons in the Royal Court Theatre's 2002 world premiere of the drama. Complete casting is still to be announced.

The reading will benefit NYTW's Artist Workshop and Education programming.
