Ramin Karimloo and Kerry Ellis are getting ready to star in the London premiere of MURDER BALLAD, which will run 29th September - 29th October 2016 at the Arts Theatre.

Sara, Tom and Michael are three New Yorkers caught in a secret love triangle that could tear their lives apart. Life has not dealt any of them the cards they wanted, and Sara is stuck in the middle, torn between her downtown past and her uptown future. Is the one that got away really worth risking everything for? But in the true tradition of all great murder ballads, when songs of love-gone-wrong are sung, blood must be spilled. The question is...by whom?

Check out a photo of Karimloo and Ellis in action below!
