Drew McOnie News

Tony Award-winning Broadway musical In The Heights will receive its London Premiere in a brand new production in The Large at Southwark Playhouse from Friday 9 May (press night Thursday 15 May at 8.00pm) it was announced today.

I'm currently sat in the auditorium at the beautiful Bridewell theatre watching all the different departments darting around preparing for the imminent technical rehearsal to take place. I am sat in the back corner and I can see everyone. Perhaps the most exciting thing to me is that I am sat in the perfect place to see the excited faces of the dancers as they arrive one at a time and take in the performance space for the first time. It's theirs and they know it.

The McOnie Company presents its inaugural production DRUNK, a theatre-dance revue which will premiere at Leicester's Curve Theatre tonight 28 January 2014 before transferring to London'sBridewell Theatre from Wednesday 5 February 2014. On sale now.

Drunk. Hiccough. We've all been there. Imagine being offered the opportunity of capturing all of these lubricated moments (good and bad) with a super talented, fun-loving company with the ring-leader (director and choreographer) Drew McOnie? I know I was drunk with excitement!

It has long been my belief that the skill of good musical theatre does not hide in the perfect dance step, catchy tune, key change or the haze machine, nor in fact in the vision of any one person. In my opinion, musical theatre is at its core the art of collaboration. The bringing together of ideas that come into existence so fluidly that no one remembers where they came from but all would agree that the heart of their own contribution to the show totally hinges on the very concept.

Broadway Entertainment Group in association with New Adventures are delighted to announce full casting for one of the most popular dance productions ever staged, MATTHEW BOURNE'S multi award-winning hit SWAN LAKE. The show plays The King's Theatre from Tuesday 18th until Saturday 22nd February. Some members of the ensemble are looking forward to performing in front of a home crowd.

And so here we are hurtling towards the end of week one of rehearsals for our premier production, DRUNK. Its amazing to believe that, what started off with a few over-excited interactions between a small group of 'can do' work-aholics has snowballed into some of the most terrifying and inspiring moments of my career… and we are only just starting.
