Undergraduates: Nigel Harman and Reece Shearsmith
Look here too
League of Gentleman star Reece Shearsmith and former EastEnder Nigel Harman are coming to the Menier Chocolate Factory.
They will appear in a new production of The Common Pursuit by Simon Gray, the 71-year-old writer known for his memoirs on life as a committed smoker.
The comedy, first performed nearly 25 years ago, is about a group of Cambridge undergraduates who launch a literary publication.
Harman played Dennis Rickman in EastEnders but was seen most recently in Harold Pinter's The Caretaker at the Tricycle. Shearsmith's previous stage work includes The Producers.
The production follows a string of hits for the small venue in Southwark.
The Common Pursuit runs from 9 May to 20 July
