Rowan Atkinson back on stage?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-15123783

This sounds interesting - Blackadder and Mr. Bean star, Rowan Atkinson, has rediscovered his interest in acting on stage, following his spell as Fagin in Oliver! at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 2009. I dare say that he wants to appear in the West End - but could Nick Hytner get in first and reel him in for a production at the National Theatre?

When he says that he wants to appear in a "fairly straight, straight-forward play", I wonder what he's got in mind...
