From Paybill.com:

The Menier Chocolate Factory—whose award-winning production of Sunday in the Park With George transfers to the West End’s Wyndham’s Theatre in May—will this summer revive another American musical when it stages The Last Five Years.

yey!!

Can I just mention how much I adore the chocolate factory?! And even better as I'm moving to London this summer I'll get to see their productions far more frequantly!

Hurrah for TLFY finally getting to this side of the pond

Their productions have such an amazing reputation that I am SO glad and excited that they are doing The Last Five Years!
Forgive me for being ignorant, but by reviving, do they mean all the direction/costumes/sets/design will be different? or are they just bringing the off-Broadway version of the show into the factory?

I would assume whole new direction and design. I doubt the original off-broadway costumes and sets exist anymore, and either way the chocolate factory isn't the type of theatre to recycle.
