BAFTA Award winner Dominic West, who can be seen in the final two seasons of the Netflix series The Crown, stars in a U.K. revival of Arthur Miller’s A View From the Bridge beginning February 16.
West plays Eddie Carbone in the Lindsay Posner-directed production, which will officially open at Theatre Royal Bath’s intimate Ustinov Studio February 27. Performances are scheduled through March 16 prior to a West End transfer in May.
The cast also features Olivier and Tony Award nominee Kate Fleetwood (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Macbeth) and BAFTA Cymru Award winner Callum Scott Howells (It’s A Sin, Cabaret) plus Nia Towle (The Ocean at the End of the Lane), Martin Marquez (Hotel Babylon), Pierro Niel-Mee (Slow Horses), Jimmy Gladdon (The Score), Michael Cusick (Noises Off), Rob Pomfret (A Voyage Round My Father), and Santino Smith (Sadie).
Pulitzer Prize winner Miller's play is a passionate study of one man’s place in the close-knit Italian-American community in 1950s New York.
A View From the Bridge was first performed as a one-act verse drama on Broadway in 1955 before being revised for its West End premiere a year later, directed by Peter Brook and starring Richard Harris and Anthony Quayle. The play was subsequently revived on Broadway in 1983, 1997, 2010, and 2015.
Posner returns to A View From the Bridge following his 2009 Olivier Award-nominated revival.
Presented by Theatre Royal Bath Productions, A View From the Bridge is designed by Peter McKintosh with lighting design by Paul Pyant.
