The Comedy Theatre is where Knightley made her West End debut last year in The Misanthrope. She plays Karen Wright, and Moss plays Martha Dobie, who together run a girls’ boarding school in 1930s New England, where they become entangled in a story of deceit, shame and courage when a schoolgirl's whispers spread.
Further casting will be announced shortly. The play is being produced by Sonia Friedman Productions and Scott Landis. It is directed by Ian Rickson.
