Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett is set to make her return to the stage after a six-year hiatus by taking on the role of Arkadina in Anton Chekhov's The Seagull.
The production, a new adaptation of the classic play, will run for six weeks at London's Barbican Theatre from February. Joining Blanchett in the cast is Tom Burke, known for his role in the TV series Strike.
