Tom Hiddleston & Hayley Atwell to Lead Jamie Lloyd's 'Much Ado About Nothing' in London's West End
It's not a secret that London has some of the best theater in the world. with over 200 venues across the city. (Around 40 of them are in its famous West End, for those who were curious.) With some of the biggest performers in the world regularly taking to the stage, the London theater scene offers a rare opportunity to see onscreen favorites perform works from some of the world's best playwrights. Not to mention the fact that it gives Anglophiles great reasons to plan regular trips to the U.K.
This Fall, three different stars from Doctor Who will be treading the boards in leading roles, and Bridgerton heartthrob Jonathan Bailey is tackling Richard II beginning in February. But now, thanks to Olivier Award-winning director Jamie Lloyd, you'll be able to see two big-name British stars together on the same stage.
Lloyd's eponymous theater company, The Jamie Lloyd Company, has set its upcoming season at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, which will see Tom Hiddleston (The Night Manager) and Hayley Atwell (Howards End) lead a new production of Much Ado About Nothing.
