Jake Brunger's exploration of queer relationships, Four Play, returns to the London stage this summer.

Four Play is a comedy that interrogates the unspoken rules of modern relationships and the fragile balance between intimacy and freedom.

Directed by Jack Sain, the cast for this production is Daniel Bravo, Lewis Cornay, Jo Foster, and Zheng Xi Yong, with Jack Gibson covering.

"I'm honestly so thrilled that Four Play is returning to London ten years after its world premiere at the Old Vic Theatre..." said Jake Brunger. "I've made a few little tweaks to the play to bring it bang up to date to reflect the ever-changing nature of queer relationships today. As someone predominantly known for being a musical theatre writer, I'm particularly delighted that we've found a cast of actors who are also mostly known for their work in that genre. I can't wait to see them in action!"

"It's a joy to be reuniting with Jake and to be heading into rehearsals with this breathtaking cast and creative team..." added Jack Sain. "Four Play may exist within a queer universe, but its questions are universal. Where do we draw the line? What is human nature and what is social construct? And are we all, ultimately, destined to own a display-only Diptyque candle? Four Play is a chaotic cuddle of a play, full of catty cackles, crises and caresses: we cannot wait to bring it to the King's Head stage."
