Screen stars Lily Collins and Álvaro Morte will make their West End debuts in Bess Wohl's Barcelona later this year.

Directed by Lynette Linton, the seductive thriller will play the Duke of York's Theatre for a strictly limited 12-week run, between October 21 and January 11, 2025.

Collins (Emily in Paris, Mank, To The Bone) and Álvaro Morte (Money Heist, Wheel of Time, Immaculate) will star in the U.K. premiere of the two-hander, which has been in development since 2013. Centering on an American tourist and a handsome Spaniard, the unlikely pair suddenly find themselves at the center of a personal and political catastrophe when their carefree one-night stand doesn't go to plan.

Said Collins, “It has been a childhood dream of mind to perform in the West End and I’m hugely excited to make my stage debut in Bess’ exciting play, Barcelona. Working with this team has truly been a gift and I cannot wait for audiences to be taken on a thrilling journey as the play unravels. I knew the moment I finished reading the script, I had to play Irene.”

Morte added, “The London theatre scene is a vibrant and exhilarating canvas for fresh, groundbreaking work. I am thrilled and honoured to be a part of this captivating new play, marking my West End debut. I'm looking forward to bringing Barcelona to life and sharing it with audiences.”

Linton will guide a creative team featuring set and costume design by Frankie Bradshaw; lighting by Jai Morjaria; composition and sound design by Duramaney Kamara and Xana; video design by Gino Ricardo Green; wig, hair, and makeup design by Cynthia De La Rosa; casting by Heather Basten and Jim Carnahan; movement and intimacy direction by Shelley Maxwell; vocal coaching by Hazel Holder; and dramatherapy by Wabriya King.

Barcelona is produced by ATG Productions, Bad Robot Live and Gavin Kalin Productions.
