According to reports, Tori Amos' musical, The Light Princess, which was previously postponed, will open at the Lyttelton Theatre in October.

Also announced today by The National Theatre's Artistic Director, Nicholas Hytner, was the cast: Rosalie Craig (Ragtime, Finding Neverland) and Clive Rowe (Into the Woods, Kiss Me Kate) will star.

The Light Princess is a musical adaptation of the George MacDonald fairy tale of the same name. Marianne Elliott will direct.

Tori Amos originally served as the lead singer of 1980s synthpop group Y Kant Tori Read, and as a solo artist was at the forefront of a number of female singer-songwriters in the early 1990s. She was also noteworthy early in her solo career as one of the few alternative rock performers to use a piano as her primary instrument. Some of her charting singles include "Crucify", "Silent All These Years", "God", "Cornflake Girl", "Caught a Lite Sneeze", "Professional Widow", "Spark", "1000 Oceans", and "A Sorta Fairytale", her most commercially successful single in the U.S. to date.
