Adékoluẹjo and Irvine join previously announced star Stephen Rea, who led the cast of the runs in London and Ireland, along with original cast members Chris Corrigan and Amy Molloy.

Cyprus Avenue tells the story of a British man in Ireland trying to make sense of a radically changed world. A Belfast Unionist and “non-negotiably British,” his sanity begins to unravel when he discovers a likeness between his newborn granddaughter and the Irish republican leader, Gerry Adams.

The new play received acclaimed engagements at London's Royal Court, Dublin’s Peacock Stage at the Abbey Theatre, and the MAC in Belfast.

The American premiere at The Public will feature scenic and costume design by Lizzie Clachan, lighting design by Paul Keogan, sound design by David McSeveny, and fight direction by Bret Yount.
