House star Robert Sean Leonard: I’ll stay with Hugh Laurie for return to British stage.

House star Robert Sean Leonard is to return to the London stage for the first time in 22 years — and hopes to catch up with his co-star Hugh Laurie.

The actor, who first came to fame alongside Robin Williams in the movie Dead Poets Society, is to star in an adaptation of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird at the Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre this summer. His last — and only — appearance in London was in another classic American story, Our Town, at the Shaftesbury Theatre in 1991. He said it was “only fair” to get his chance again in Britain after Laurie’s nine-year stint playing drug-addicted medic Dr Gregory House in the hit US drama. “I’ve already told Hugh I’m staying with him,” he joked.

Speaking from his California home, Leonard admitted he was not sure he had even been to Regent’s Park — but had good advice on what to expect.

“I’m bringing an umbrella,” he said. “But I’ve read a lot of things from people who love the theatre and they think the rain is part of the experience.”

The new season also includes The Sound of Music and an adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. To Kill a Mockingbird runs from May 16 to June 15.

Und wer im Juli in den Staaten ist…

Williamstown Theatre Festival 2013.
July 17 – 27, 2013
PYGMALION
By George Bernard Shaw
Directed by Nicholas Martin
With Robert Sean Leonard

„You have no idea how frightfully interesting it is to take a human being and change her into a quite different human being.“ With all the parallels of a modern reality-show makeover, an impoverished flower seller is taken in hand by a linguistics professor who attempts to change her accent and pass her off as the epitome of English society. For a wager. A sharp satire on class and women’s independence, Shaw’s century-old masterpiece features Robert Sean Leonard as Henry Higgins in an uproarious, poignant, and unforgettable battle of wits between two of theatre’s most iconic characters.
