AWARD-WINNING actress Eve Myles and Royal Shakespeare Company actress Susannah Fielding are confirmed to star alongside American actor Zach Braff in his UK stage acting debut in the comedy, All New People.
The play, written by Scrubs TV star Braff, will be directed by award-winning Peter DuBois and can be seen at the Opera House in Manchester From February 8-11.
A contemporary comedy, it debuted at New York’s award-winning Second Stage Theatre packed out nightly in the 2011 season.
In the dead of winter, at his wealthy friends’ luxury Long Beach Island apartment, Charlie (Zach Braff) has hit rock bottom on his 35th birthday.
Away from the rest of the world, this perfect escape is interrupted by a motley parade of misfits who show up and change his plans.
A hired beauty, a fireman and an eccentric British real estate agent desperately trying to stay in the country all suddenly find themselves tangled together in a beach house where the mood is anything but sunny, while Charlie just wishes they’d leave and let him get on with it.
Eve Myles is best known for her role as Gwen in the BBC1 series Torchwood and has also appeared in Doctor Who, Belonging, Merlin and EastEnders.
“I'm delighted to have been cast as the character of Emma in such a well-anticipated and funny play,” said Eve.
“Having concentrated on TV work recently I’m excited to be returning to the stage and I’m very much looking forward to working with Zach and Peter.”
