Gambon, Jennings: Auden, Britten
I think I’m going to have to cash in some frequent-flyer miles to see this: Michael Gambon (right) will play poet WH Auden (left) and Alex Jennings will play composer Benjamin Britten, in the world premiere of Alan Bennett’s new play, provisionally titled “The Habit of Art,” which is due to receive its premiere at the National’s Lyttelton Theatre, in London, in November.
