As previously reported, Joseph Fiennes will star in a West End revival of John Osborne and Anthony Creighton's Epitaph for George Dillon. The show is now set to begin performances at the Comedy Theatre on September 20. Pam Ferris, who was previously announced to co-star with Fiennes, will no longer be taking part in the production.
Epitaph For George Dillon centers on a penniless aspiring actor who is brought into suburbia by the matriarch of a family, Kate Elliot. Kate's son was killed in World War II, and George begins to act as a surrogate son to her. But there is a cost to his creativity.
Peter Gill is directing this revival, which is scheduled to open on September 27.
