Carey Mulligan and Bill Nighy will reprise their critically acclaimed West End performances when the hit London production of David Hare’s Skylight, directed by two-time Tony Award® winner Stephen Daldry, comes to Broadway this spring.
On a bitterly cold London evening, schoolteacher Kyra Hollis (Carey Mulligan) receives an unexpected visit from her former lover, Tom Sergeant (Bill Nighy), a successful and charismatic restaurateur.
When Tom’s wife discovered their relationship, Kyra had walked out – on Tom, and their work together at Tom’s restaurant – for a teaching job at a money-starved state school. Now, years later, Tom’s wife is dead; burdened with conflicting emotions – guilt, grief, longing – he has returned to settle unfinished business. But Kyra has built a new life for herself as a dedicated teacher for the under-served youth of the East End, and Tom’s arrival knocks her out of her carefully constructed equanimity As the evening progresses, the two attempt to rekindle their once passionate relationship, only to find themselves locked in a dangerous battle of opposing ideologies and mutual desires.
