The National Theatre has announced that Tom will be joining Sandra Oh in an adaptation of Moliere's The Misanthrope, playing the part of Stefan. Previously announced cast members include Paul Chahidi (who coincidentally joined Tom in November for a live reading at Westminster Abbey of wartime poetry) and Abigail Cruttenden. There will be a Lost in Austen reunion as well, with the lovely and talented Jemima Rooper playing the part of Elaine.

Tomorrow, Tom will be taking part in a live reading of wartime poetry in Westminster Abbey, with fellow actors Dame Harriet Walter and Paul Chahidi. The event is free and will run from 6:30pm to 7:45pm. 

There will also be a panel, chaired by Kavita Puri, that includes Christina Lamb, Chief Foreign Correspondent for The Sunday Times, Louise Sandher-Jones MP, Minister for Veterans and People, and The Very Revd Dr David Hoyle KCVO MBE, Dean of Westminster. The event is being produced by Amelia Richards, and by Josie Rourke, who also directed Tom on stage in As You Like It.
