David Tennant, Alfred Enoch, and Nina Sosanya are among further guest stars to join Tim Crouch’s An Oak Tree, which plays at the Young Vic in London from 6-24 May.

Also joining the production are Lorraine Ashbourne (Alma’s Not Normal, Sherwood), Eddie Marsan (Vera Drake, Back to Black), and Meera Syal (A Tupperware of Ashes, Goodness Gracious Me).

They join the previously announced Adjoa Andoh (Bridgerton, Richard II) Jessie Buckley (The Lost Daughter, Cabaret), Arthur Darvill (Broadchurch, Oklahoma!) Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù (Gangs of London, Slow Horses), Mark Gatiss (The League of Gentlemen, The Motive and the Cue), Julie Hesmondhalgh (Mr Bates vs The Post Office, Punch), Michelle Terry (Tribes, The Cafe), Alex Lawther (The End of the F---ing World, Black Mirror) Luke Thompson (Bridgerton, A Little Life), Russell Tovey (Being Human, American Horror Story: NYC) and Indira Varma (Game of Thrones, Present Laughter).

Each guest artist will only be revealed to audiences live on the night, as they join Crouch on stage on his bold, absurdly comic, and moving story, which pioneered the idea of the theatrical ‘cold-read’.

Crouch’s play follows a father who loses his daughter in a car accident, and meets the driver responsible for her death during their hypnotist act on stage.
