A dynamic and thoughtful musical exploration which taps into the profound feeling of never truly growing up.
Acclaimed musical theatre composer and song-writer Drew Gasparini’s new contemporary musical WE AREN’T KIDS ANYMORE will mark its world premiere on Monday 28th April 2025. Olivier Award-winning Sam Tutty (Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York); Dear Evan Hansen) and revered West End performer Aimie Atkinson (SIX The Musical; Pretty Woman) were the first two cast members announced set to bring this heartfelt musical to life at the Savoy Theatre in the Spring. Now also announced joining the exceptional cast is Award-winning actress Dylan Mulvaney (Attitude’s Woman of the Year 2023, a Forbes 30 Under 30 Honouree, and star of one-woman show FAGHAG). Two more cast members are yet to be announced.
Known for her viral series Days of Girlhood, which received more than one billion views across all platforms, and honoured on the Out100 List, Dylan Mulvaney will bring one of the five intricate narratives to life. She comments, I cannot wait to make my West End concert debut with such an inventive show and team. Theatre is my greatest love in life and I’m so happy to be doing what I love in my favorite city!
WE AREN’T KIDS ANYMORE is a dynamic and thoughtful musical exploration which taps into the profound feeling of never truly growing up. It is followed by a second act which sees Gasparini in concert, presenting some of his most iconic work from his extensive musical career. Gasparini and the cast will be joined by some special invited guests, yet to be announced.
Originally an autobiographical tale, WE AREN’T KIDS ANYMORE has evolved into a poignant exploration of the complex, yet fundamentally universal, experience of navigating our path through life, and all the emotional multiplicity it brings; the highest joys, the deepest regrets, and the fleeting moments of pride – life is often a series of guesses, punctuated by key moments of feeling as we negotiate its inevitable failures and successes. The story of this uplifting musical is told from 5 distinct perspectives, crossing age, generation and gender. WE AREN’T KIDS ANYMORE explores the complexities of having a dream, chasing that dream, and the rocky path between the two. At its core, this musical reminds us that, no matter who you are, growing up is still a journey of guesses made in the dark.
Sam Tutty comments, I am so excited to be working on this project - I am familiar with Drew and his work and to be working with him is truly wonderful. I can't wait to explore the work on this project and see what the team and I can make together!
