Diana: The Musical in London – cast, dates, venue and tickets
Diana: The Musical makes its UK premiere this year with a one-off concert production.
Diana: The Musical will run for one-night-only at the EventIM Apollo on Monday, 4 December at 7:30PM.
It is 1996. Diana has divorced the heir to the throne. She is free.
This radical new concert version of Diana: The Musical, hands the microphone to Diana as she reflects on her past.
The show has music by Bon Jovi keyboard player David Bryan and book and lyrics by Joe DiPietro, the team behind the Tony Award-winning musical ‘Memphis’. DiPietro also wrote the book for the Tom Jones musical ‘What’s New Pussycat?’ and the book and lyrics for the long running off-Broadway musical ‘I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change’.
The musical supervisor is Adam Hoskins (The Secret Garden, Once in Concert, Annie Get Your Gun).
Who’s on the cast?
In a theatrical twist, this is a tale in two parts, narrated by Diana (Kerry Ellis) as she looks back on herself as the 19-year-old Diana (Maiya Quansah-Breed) that captured the nation.
Denise Welch guest-stars as The Queen.
Joining them are Alice Fearn will play Camilla Parker Bowles, Andy Coxon will play Prince Charles, Jay Perry will play James Hewitt and Aleyna Mohanraj will play Sarah Spencer, Diana’s sister.
On this stage she is in control of her narrative and her story is brought to life with humour and satire and in turn reveals a woman who, having just signed her divorce papers, sees a future filled with opportunity
