Roy Orbison's legendary music become the touching soundtrack for In Dreams - a moving new musical from writer David West Read and director Luke Sheppard, the masterminds behind the smash hit musical & Juliet - about cherishing loved ones and the life you have, on stage at the Ed Mirvish Theatre until November 12, 2023.

Currently starring in the premiere of new musical In Dreams at Leeds Playhouse as Ramsey, Oliver Tompsett talks new roles, learning for a job, and the audience reaction to this story of a band reunited set to the music of Roy Orbison.

The world premiere of the brand-new musical IN DREAMS starring Broadway’s Lena Hall and the West End’s Oliver Tompsett has opened at Leeds Playhouse and the critics are weighing in!

Set in New Mexico, the story revolves around the former lead singer of a country-rock band, who, at a critical moment in her life, invites her old bandmates to join her for “the party of a lifetime” while keeping her true motivations a secret. In Dreams will take you on a joyous uplifting but also moving journey —a lyrical and comedic exploration of the universal longing for love and connection when facing challenging times.
