"Comfortably married for 25 years, James and Eleanor's world is upended when James agrees to a secret rendezvous with their recently widowed friend Kate. Fib by fib, the affair strips the marriage bare and reveals the illicit desires and hidden passions that lie beneath the everyday facade.

A glorious meeting of humour, eroticism and duplicity, this modern classic and winner of the Evening Standard Award for Best Play makes a much-anticipated return to the West End.

Passion Play was written by English playwright Peter Nichols.

The 2013 run and tour is directed by David Leveaux (Arcadia, The Late Middle Classes, Betrayal) and stars Zoë Wanamaker - working together for the first time since their Olivier Award-winning collaboration on Electra (Donmar Warehouse/Broadway)."
