If this is so, will they still show the play at cinemas around the country before the end of the extended run?

We have a character name! Damien plays Spike & there's a picture of him in an 'intimate embrace' with Olivia Vinall's character Hilary in this Telegraph article...

Fifi, I know!
A lot of info has been kept under wraps but we'll tell you that Damien Molony plays Spike and here's a nice little picture to get you all excited.
Is this Telegraph writer a secret forum member? :)

Just seen! At last we know who Damien is playing!
and confirmation of the extended run until May

Not sure if everyone has seen, we have a brand new section for The Hard Problem, to organise topics as more info comes through. Including a new topic for pics here

Thanks for posting the picture. We take the Telegraph so I would have found it eventually! I have just checked to see if it is still on at the Cineworld and find that it is. I think a purchase might be coming up!

Oh my! What a great, great, great, great picture we have posted here! ooohbaby

Just read the article this morning, and I noticed this: 

"Tickets for the play are sold out until April, when fans of Sir Tom’s work in up to 40 countries across the world will be able to see The Hard Problem at the cinema."

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that in some point this play will be playing in our cinemas as well. I would love to take few friends to see it too! aww

New interview with playwright Sir Tom Stoppard. No mention of Damien but fascinating read nonetheless!

In a recent article in The Independent (and similar article in The Telegraph) Tom Stoppard was quoted as saying during his Q&A with Nicholas Hytner at the NT that he had to "dumb down" a scene in The Hard Problem, so audiences would understand it, and that he "resented it". 

Surprise surprise, he was grossly misquoted...

and has written the following letter to The Independent - good on you Sir Tom!

The Hard Problem is now taking a 20 day hiatus, returns to the NT 27 March!

A well deserved break for the cast and production, congrats to them on a successful first part of the run.

Ok, I'm so late to realize that Jonathan Coy was in Suspects.  But he and Damo did not cross paths then.  Still... I think eventually we'll need a Six Degrees of Damo game!

I wasn't aware that this was actually live when it is at the cinema.

Unfortunately I don't think I will be able to go but never mind, I will see him sometime.

 Weirdly, the only other NT Live screening I saw also had Jonathan Coy in it!

I realise that Tom is going to be at a post-golfmatch dinner this evening, so I might manage it! Fingers crossed!
