Emma Fielding and Dominic West will replace Sinead Cusack and Rufus Sewell in Tom Stoppard’s Rock’n’Roll this November, as further performances are announced for Trevor Nunn’s sell-out production. 

Produced in the West End by Sonia Friedman, Rock ‘n’ Roll received its world premiere at the Royal Court earlier this year and subsequently transferred to the Duke of York’s Theatre. Further performances were announced in August and as discussions continue for the Broadway production, the producers of Rock ‘n’ Roll have announced a further 15 weeks, now booking until February 25, 2007.

Directed by Nunn, Rock ‘n’ Roll marked both Stoppard and Nunn’s Royal Court debuts and was presented as part of the venue’s year-long 50th anniversary celebrations. Set design is by Robert Jones, costume design is by Emma Ryott, lighting is by Howard Harrison and sound by Ian Dickinson Fielding and West will join the cast from November 14.
