Prolific duo Stiles and Drewe seem to be having a ball populating London with their works. While Mary Poppins - for which they wrote additional music and lyrics - looms large on the West End from the Prince Edward on Old Compton Street, director Will Keith opened another musical of theirs just south of the Strand at the Charing Cross Theatre. Interestingly enough, Soho Cinders serenades Poppins' address and is a proper celebration of Soho in all its idiosyncratic beauty.
Soho Cinders features Luke Bayer and Millie O'Connell. They are joined by Lewis Asquith, Christopher Coleman, Ewan Gillies, Tori Hargreaves, Natalie Harman, Michaela Stern, with an ensemble cast featuring Jade Bailey, Thomas Ball, Luke Byrne, Ben Darcy, Laura Fulgenzi, Danny Lane, Savannah Reed, Melissa Rose. Watch Bayer and O'Connell sing 'Wishing For The Normal'!
