Andrew Scott is set to reprise his starring role in the one-man play “Sea Wall.”

The production of the limited run — it will play 19 performances at Studio Seaview in New York from Oct. 16 to Oct. 30 — will be filmed for a feature adaptation.

The 50-minute monologue play was written for Scott by Tony-winning playwright Simon Stephens when he was commissioned in 2008 by the Bush Theatre in London to write a play that can be performed in natural daylight after the theater’s lighting was damaged during a flood. Scott plays Alex, a photographer whose life with his wife and young daughter is suddenly upended.
