Hollywood actors Sienna Miller and Jack O’Connell will lead a new production of Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof at the West End’s Apollo Theatre.
The play begins previews on 13 July and will run until 7 October.
Set in Mississippi, a Southern family gather at Big Daddy’s cotton plantation to celebrate his birthday. When a secret is revealed, the core of the family quickly begins to break down. As Maggie “the cat” (Sienna Miller) attempts to rekindle her romance with husband and ex-sportsman Brick (Jack O’Connell), in hope of securing a child, lies begin to reach boiling point.
With concerns growing over their inheritance of the family estate, Maggie’s desperation for a child reaches an explosive climax in this destructive domestic drama.
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof was last seen in the West End in 2009, a Broadway transfer starring James Earl Jones and Adrian Lester at the Novello Theatre.
