David Bowie's acclaimed musical Lazarus is set to be staged in London later this year. 

The show was one of Bowie's final works, which contained music from his final album Blackstar. The show is based on Bowie's cult 1976 film, The Man Who Fell To Earth - starring the Thin White Duke as fallen alien, Thomas Newton. 

Co-written with Irish playwright Enda Walsh and directed by Ivo van Hove, Lazarus will be showing at London's King's Cross Theatre from October 2016 - January 2017. 

Described by critics as 'unapologetically weird', Lazarus will be hitting the UK featuring Michael C Hall, Michael Esper and Sophia Anne Caruso, with the full cast yet to be announced.
