Oscar-nominated actress Jessica Chastain will be making her West End debut this summer as she takes on the role of Nora in A Doll's House at the Playhouse Theatre in Central London.

Jessica will star in Frank McGuiness' version of Henrik Ibsen's classic play, which is being directed by Jamie Lloyd as part of the Jamie Lloyd Company’s season at the Playhouse Theatre.

Originally published in 1879, A Doll's House follows a woman as she struggles through the misogynistic world around her.

The new production will run from June 10, 2020 to September 5, 2020, and tickets will go on sale at 10am on Tuesday, January 28 right here.

As part of the company's commitment to making theatre more accessible, there will be 15,000 tickets available for £15 for key workers, under-30s and those receiving jobseeker's allowance or other government benefits.

"At The Jamie Lloyd Company, our aim is to work with the most exceptional actors in the world, offering them new and unexpected challenges," Lloyd said in a statement (via Whatsonstage).

"Jessica Chastain is a gifted artist and is, of course, well known and respected for her extraordinary screen performances. However, I'm delighted she is now returning to the stage – where her career began – in this bold reappraisal of Ibsen's great masterpiece."

Lloyd will also be directing Game of Thrones and Last Christmas star Emilia Clarke in The Seagull at the Playhouse from March 11 to May 30, and has previously worked with actors including Claire Foy, Tom Hiddleston, Gemma Chan, Zawe Ashton and Kit Harington.

Currently, Lloyd is directing James McAvoy in a freely adapted version of Cyrano de Bergerac, which is running until Saturday, February 29.
