BWW TV: Watch The MURDER BALLAD Trailer Ahead of London Opening

The all-star cast of Kerry Ellis, Ramin Karimloo,Victoria Hamilton-Barritt and Norman Bowman, directed by Sam Yates, have brought hit American musical MURDER BALLAD to the Arts Theatre. The show is now in previews, with a West End premiere on 5 October.

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?

Fresh from making a critically acclaimed killing off-Broadway, Murder Ballad is a razor-sharp tale of modern relationships, abandoned dreams and treachery in the big city. Written by the award-winning Julia Jordan with music and lyrics by singer-songwriter Juliana Nash, this is a boldly brilliant and explosive new musical that's set to be London's hottest new sensation.
