\n

Following in the footsteps of her\u00a0Normal People<\/em>\u00a0co-star Paul Mescal, Daisy Edgar-Jones will be taking to the stage in a reimagining of another Tennessee Williams play. Instead of\u00a0A Streetcar Named Desire<\/em>, Daisy will be taking on another classic,\u00a0Cat On A Hot Tin Roof<\/em>, alongside Kingsley Ben-Adir (Bob Marley: One Love<\/em>) and Lennie James (Mr Loverman<\/em>,\u00a0The Walking Dead<\/em>). The 1955 play, which scored Williams his second Pulitzer Prize for drama, follows a wealthy but disintegrating Southern family who have gathered to celebrate bullying patriarch Big Daddy\u2019s birthday. Rebecca Frecknall \u2013 who has made her name reviving Williams\u2019 classics \u2013 directs, bringing new levels of social insight to the play.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
