Publish date: 2024-06-26

2:22 A Ghost Story is returning to the West End for its seventh stint this summer, and the full cast has just been announced.

TV presenter and investigative journalist Stacey Dooley will be taking on the role of Jenny, and will be joined by Donna Air (The Split) and Joe McFadden (The Rocky Horror Show). The cast is complete by The Inbetweeners star James Buckley, who previously performed in the show in 2021/2022.

Speaking about her new role, Stacey said: “Delighted to be involved in the next adaptation of 2:22! Made up! I fell for the play when I went to watch it in 2022. All four characters feel so familiar, which means the subtle ‘ghost story’ just works so brilliantly. Can’t wait to bring Jenny back to life! Let’s go!”

James Buckley added: “I’m so excited to be rejoining the cast of 2.22. It’s such a brilliant play and to be back in such a brilliant theatre. It will be great to be play Ben again and now all I need to do is make sure I remember the lines. Can’t wait to see everyone there.”

Written by Danny Robins, the thrilling play revolves around a woman named Jenny, who believes she is being haunted at 2:22am every night. The show has become synonymous with its occasionally unexpected casting, with the role of Jenny having been played by the likes of Lily Allen, Cheryl, Laura Whitmore and Giovanna Fletcher. Other notable names to have starred in the show in the West End include Jake Wood, Tom Felton, Matt Willis and Stephanie Beatriz.

The new West End run of 2:22 A Ghost Story will take place at the Gielgud Theatre from from 25 May until 4 August. It will run alongside the UK tour, which stars Fiona Wade, Jay McGuiness, Vera Chok and George Rainsford.
