Photo Coverage: First Look at THE BOYS IN THE BAND UK Tour
The first class revival of Mart Crowley's ground-breaking play, THE BOYS IN THE BAND, opens at Park Theatre in London this autumn, then tours to The Lowry, Theatre Royal Brighton and West Yorkshire Playhouse. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
There's a party about to commence when nine men gather in a New York apartment for a birthday celebration. Harold, a self-confessed 'Jew fairy', receives a surprise birthday gift - a beautiful male hustler dubbed Cowboy. Meanwhile, party host Michael gets an unwanted surprise of his own in the shape of a figure from his past. As the booze is drunk and the dope smoked, the mood swings from hilarity to heart-break.
Olivier Award winner Mark Gatiss will star alongside his husband Ian Hallard in this eagerly anticipated production, which sees the pair playing 'Harold' and 'Michael'.
West End musical theatre star Daniel Boys will star as 'Donald', Jack Derges, recently seen as the mysterious 'Andy Flynn' in EastEnders, will play 'Cowboy', Miranda star James Holmes will star as 'Emory', Midsomer Murders' John Hopkins will play 'Alan', Primeval's Ben Mansfield will play 'Larry', and Undercover's Nathan Nolan will play 'Hank'. Further casting to be announced.
The production is directed by A Small Family Business & One Man Two Guvnors' director, Adam Penford, and will open at Park Theatre in London from 28 September 2016 - 30 October 2016, with a press night on Tuesday 4 October. The show will then embark on a short UK Tour visiting The Lowry, Salford from 3 - 6 November, Theatre Royal, Brighton from 8 - 12 November, and the West Yorkshire Playhouse from 14 - 19 November.
