Directed by the Tricycle artistic director Nicolas Kent and Indhu Rubasingham, assisted by Rachel Grunwald, The Great Game: Afghanistan will present the world premiere of a new play by Lee Blessing, alongside the plays premiered last season by writers Stephen Jeffreys, Ron Hutchinson, Amit Gupta, Joy Wilkinson, David Edgar, David Greig, Colin Teevan, Ben Ockrent, Abi Morgan, Richard Bean and Simon Stephens. These plays will be accompanied by three monologues by Iranian writer and documentary maker Siba Shakib and verbatim pieces by the Guardian's security editor, Richard Norton Taylor.

Designs are by project designer Pamela Howard and associate designer Miriam Nabarro with lighting by James Farncombe and sound by Tom Lishman.

Following the run at the Tricycle, the production will embark on an American tour in September, visiting The Shakespeare at the Harman, The Guthrie, Berkeley Rep and The Public.
