Director of Nuffield Southampton Theatres, Samuel Hodges, today announces the full cast for the company’s inaugural production at NST City – the world première of Howard Brenton’s The Shadow Factory, which Hodges directs.

Veteran of stage and screen Anita Dobson joins the cast as Lady Cooper/Ma along with Shala Nyx who plays Polly. Dobson, known for playing the iconic role of Angie Watts in EastEnders, and Nyx join David Birrell, Catherine Cusack, Lorna Fitzgerald, Hilton McRae and Daniel York to complete the company. The Shadow Factory opens on 15 February, with previews from 7 February, and runs until 3 March.

This world première of The Shadow Factory will open Southampton’s brand-new theatre, NST City, conceived by NST’s director Samuel Hodges and 59 Productions – the Tony Award-winning artists behind the video design of the London 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony.

Alongside the production, the company will mount The Shadow Factory Exhibition, giving audiences the opportunity to step into the stories behind The Shadow Factory in an installation featuring the visually stunning moving set designed by 59 Productions.
