Owen Dennis Will Make His Professional Debut in the World Premiere of SOHO BOY
The production will open at Drayton Arms Theatre in May.
Soho Boy, a new musical by Paul Emelion Daly about the joys and perils of moving to London, will open at Drayton Arms Theatre, 153 Old Brompton Road, London, SW5, 24 May to 4 June, 2022 over the Queen's Platinum Jubilee Bank Holiday before moving to the Edinburgh Fringe in August.
London press night: Friday 27 May at 7.30pm.
Young and trendy, Spencer leaves home and hits Soho for a whirlwind journey of love, laughter, happiness... and heartbreak. Working in a clothes store, busking on the streets and partying at the weekend, the glitter soon fades when Spencer stumbles into the darker side of the neon lights..
Filled with glamour, sex and songs, this is a modern take on a gay scene that can appear glamorous but can also be harsh and lonely.
Owen Dennis is making his professional debut as Spencer.
