Penelope Wilton and Luke Evans Michael Grandage said today "It is always a great moment to celebrate the birth of a new comedy in the West End and particularly from an important new voice such as Marcelo Dos Santos. I am thrilled to be working again with Penelope Wilton and Luke Evans alongside a cast of twelve other actors as we bring an exciting new play to the stage this autumn and over the Christmas period ahead." The production reunites Grandage with Wilton – they previously collaborated on productions of The Chalk Garden, John Gabriel Borkman and Hamlet; and with Evans who performed at the Donmar twice under Grandage's Artistic directorship, in Small Change and Piaf.

Following their introduction via the bursary programme, MGC commissioned Dos Santos to write Backstairs Billy.
