Photo Flash: Inside Rehearsal For CITY OF ANGELS at the Garrick Theatre

By: Mar. 05, 2020

Josie Rourke's critically acclaimed and Olivier Award winning production of City of Angels makes its West End transfer five years since opening at the Donmar Warehouse in 2014. With a swinging score by Cy Coleman and David Zippel and a brilliantly witty book by Larry Gelbart, City of Angels is a musical love letter to the glamorous world of old Hollywood and film noir. The musical will play at the Garrick Theatre for a limited season, with previews from Thursday 5 March 2020, reuniting the production's entire creative team.

BRIT Award winning singer Nicola Roberts (Girls Aloud), Grammy and Emmy nominee Vanessa Williams (Desperate Housewives, Ugly Betty) and Theo James (Divergent, Insurgent, Allegiant) all make their West End debuts. They are joined by Hadley Fraser (Les Misérables, Young Frankenstein), Rosalie Craig, who played the lead role in the recent gender-twist hit revival, Company, Olivier Award winner Rebecca Trehearn (Show Boat) and RSC stage actor Jonathan Slinger.

The cast also includes Marc Elliott, Nick Cavaliere, Adam Fogarty, Mark Penfold, Rob Houchen, Joshua St Clair and Cindy Bellot, Sadie-Jean Shirley, Manuel Pacific and Ryan Reid as the Angel City 4.

Review: TROMPE L'OEIL, The Other Palace

Trompe L’Oeil is a French phrase meaning trick of the eye, or optical illusion. Coincidentally, when said out loud it sounds rather a lot like ‘Trump loyal’. Most people who notice this similarity would likely shrug it off and move on with their day. Henry Parkman Biggs, however, decided it would be the perfect title for a musical bewilderingly combining a satire of Trump’s presidency with visuals of Surrealist art, and also, according to the show description, a queer love story.

Body Show is an apocalyptic, gender-bending, drag-infused spectacular tackling dysphoria and eating disorders head-on. Fresh from their hit Fringe run, individual performance artists Frankie Thompson (Catts) and Liv Ello (Swarm) bring their collaborative show to London, presenting something both thought-provoking and a whole lot of fun.
