Timothée Chalamet to make West End debut in 4000 Miles – how to get tickets

Timothee Chalamet is to make his West End debut in the Pulitzer-Prize nominated drama 4000 Miles by Amy Herzog.

Dubbed a “funny, moving, altogether wonderful drama” by the New York Times, 4000 Miles will star Chalamet as a 21-year-old who vanishes while cycling across the United States with his best friend. After weeks of silence, he suddenly appears on the doorstep of his grandmother’s Manhattan apartment, where their mutual griefs collide.

Chalamet will star alongside Eileen Atkins, under the direction of Matthew Warchus. The play will preview from 6 April and officially open on 16 April. It will close 23 May.

In a statement, Warchus said: “Amy Herzog is one of my favourite living writers – she writes with a deceptively powerful simplicity, full of extraordinary grace, precision and radiance.

“I’m very much looking forward to working with this exceptional cast on her gorgeous play which abounds with intimate beauty and truth.”
