Off the back of his latest album release 'To Do. To Be' and the launch at the Theatre Cafe, BWW: UK spoke to Tim Prottey-Jones about his current projects and plans for the future.
Tim Prottey-Jones most notably came to people's attention when he was a finalist on ITV's Superstar whereby Andrew Lloyd Webber used his previously successful reality format to find his 'Jesus' for a UK arena tour. After being eliminated far too early from the competition, there was a conciliation when he was offered the understudy for Judas' (played by Tim Minchin) in the show. Although this gave him a platform and the recognition he deserved, his career was blossoming before the competition even started. Prottey-Jones is now performing in Kinky Boots in London, following a run in the successful West End production of Once. He excels in all areas of performance; a multi-talented vocalist, musician, composer and producer - as showcased on this, his third studio album 'To Do. To Be'.
The UK première of Kinky Boots, Broadway's huge-hearted, high-heeled hit will open at London's Adelphi Theatre on 15 September 2015, with previews from 21 August. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
Following the news that Broadway's Once will be closing, the West End production announced it will close on March 21, 2015. Irish pop superstar Ronan Keating will be joining the London production November 17 and will remain for the rest of the musical's run.
