London premiere announced for the heartfelt, coming-of-age musical The Mad Ones.
Bree Lowdermilk and Kait Kerrigan's funny and heartfelt musical The Mad Ones is putting its foot on the gas and accelerating down to The Other Palace for its London debut and following a hugely successful first run in Birmingham last year, Electric Press Productions has announced the star-studded cast which will feature breakout stars and West End performers.
Reprising the lead role of Samantha Brown is Dora Gee. She is joined by rising star Gabriel Hinchcliffe in the role of Adam. A beloved favourite in the West End, Courtney Stapleton brings unmatched belting vocals and charisma to the role of Kelly, with rising powerhouse vocalist Thea-Jo Wolfe as Beverly. Completing the cast is Eliza Bowden who will be covering the roles of both Kelly and Sam.
Featuring music by Bree Lowdermilk with book and lyrics by Kait Kerrigan, this hilarious and moving musical traverses the complexities of mother-daughter dynamics and the universal experience of high school relationships. Caught between a yearning for the unknown and feeling bound by expectation, 18-year-old Samantha Brown telescopes back to a time to relive her senior year. We meet the characters who were her life before her world fell apart - Sam’s well-intentioned helicopter mother Bev, her high school sweetheart boyfriend Adam, and her painfully alive best friend Kelly, who haunts her.
Full of huge, soaring songs and invigorating vocals, The Mad Ones blends the perfect mixture of humour and heartache, presenting the very best of a contemporary musical theatre show.
