Photo Flash: Michael Gambon and Eileen Atkins Star in Trevor Nunn's ALL THAT FALL at Jermyn Street Theatre

Jermyn Street Theatre has announced the full cast for one of the most eagerly awaited theatre events of the year. Joining Eileen Atkins and Michael Gambon in Trevor Nunn's production of All That Fall, a radio play by Samuel Beckett, will be Catherine Cusack, Oliver Barry-Brook, Ruairi Conaghan, Ian Conningham, Aidan Dunlop, Frank Grimes, James Hayes and Gerard Horan. Get a first look at Gambon and Atkins in the photos below!

The production is proving to be one of the hottest tickets of the autumn season and continues and extends this small and intimate theatre's burgeoning reputation for attracting the very best talent in British theatre in order to rediscover and stage lesser-known works by major writers. 

Specially commissioned by the BBC as a radio play, when it was first heard on the Third Programme in 1957, All That Fall was immediately and universally acclaimed for its comic and linguistic exuberance.

The piece charts the journey of old and unwieldy Mrs Rooney as she drags herself towards a railway station on a Saturday lunchtime to meet her blind husband on his way back from the office to guide him home. Along the way she passes the time of day with a man with a dung cart and a man with a bicycle. A third man with a motor-car offers her a lift and a church-struck spinster helps her up the station steps.
