The BBC Proms announce the full cast for the concert performance of Bernstein's On the Town

The concert at Tokyo's Theatre Orb will feature Rebecca Luker, Celinde Schoenmaker, Howard McGillin, Michael Xavier, and more. The concert is directed by Mark Stuart.

The Magic of Animation was a wonderful celebration of music from animated films and the debut concert for new company West End Does. They performed a lovely mix of both classic and newer Disney songs, from shows like Moana and Frozen, along with some tunes from other animated movies like Anastasia and The Prince of Egypt. It seemed like they managed to find the nine performers in the West End who seem like actual fairy tale princesses and princes.

Rob Houchen is one of the three directors of the new event company called West End Does which has its first concert, The Magic of Animation, on 6 May. The Guildford School of Acting graduate is best known for playing Marius in Les Miserables, Fleet in Titanic, and his many concert performances. Houchen has also released two EPs, featuring covers and his own original music.

El concierto sera una nueva colaboracion entre Alfonso Casado y Mariano Detry, esta vez para realizar un recorrido por el trabajo de Leonard Bernstein y su influencia en el musical Americano.

On May 6th a brand new series of concerts 'West End Does:' launches with 'The Magic of Animation - In Concert' at Cadogan Hall, as part of Forty Four Productions.

Barnum, the Greatest Showman on Earth, who combines razzle-dazzle with charm and brass to sell 'humbug' to cheering crowds. What did the critics think? Check out the reviews here!

The Menier has a superb track record with breathing new life into classic musicals, but falls short with their latest revival: Cy Coleman's 1980 portrait of P.T. Barnum, creator of The Greatest Show on Earth . In stripping back some of the spectacle for this smaller space, Gordon Greenberg's production reveals the work's weaknesses as well as those of its leading man.
