Adeel Akhtar stars as ambitious politician Angad, who emerges as the favourite candidate in a political contest when the leader of the opposition is forced to resign due to a scandal.

Full casting has been announced for the Adeel Akhtar-led The Estate at the National Theatre. Performances begin in the Dorfman theatre from 9 July to 23 August.

Shaan Sahota's debut political play will star Shelley Conn (Bridgerton) as Malicka, Dinita Gohil (The Father and the Assassin) as Sangeeta, Thusitha Jayasundera (The House of Bernarda Alba) as Gyan, Humphrey Ker (Welcome to Wrexham) as Ralph Hughes, Fode Simbo (Samuel Takes a Break...) as Isaac. and Helena Wilson (The Hills of California) as Petra.

Akhtar (Fool Me Once) plays ambitious politician Angad, who emerges as the favourite candidate in a political contest when the leader of the opposition is forced to resign due to a scandal. He could make history — but only if his family keep their mouths shut.
