Cast Announced for New Family Musical THE LITTLE BEASTS at The Other Palace

Casting announced for work in progress presentation of brand new family musical The Little Beasts for ages 7+ at The Other Palace this summer. Sebastien Torkia plays the Man in Black alongside Laura Baldwin (Sam) and a cast of ensemble actors.

This dark and imaginatively comic musical follows a selfish little girl who runs away from home and discovers a magical menagerie filled with animals that used to be children before their naughtiness brought them to untimely ends. When the menagerie's menacing proprietor tasks her to choose one animal to set free, she must decide which one, if any, has learned its lesson. But things are not what they seem, and is any child truly naughty?

The Little Beasts is a work in progress production and will have a number of public sharings. Audience members will be invited to help with the development of the show by offering feedback and opinion to the creative team. The show will change over the course of three weeks of public performances.

'It is a rare and exciting opportunity to be able to develop a new British musical in its early stages in front of family audiences. The feedback we receive from the audience after each show will be fed into cuts, re-writes and re-staging for the next performance. The process will be incredibly challenging for our multi-skilled cast and we're delighted to have such a talented and committed group of performers on board.' - Andy Barnes, Executive Producer, Perfect Pitch
