Fresh from starring in the West End premiere of Ain’t Too Proud at the Prince Edward Theatre, Tosh Wanogho-Maud will perform a limited run of live solo shows in November and December.
Marking his solo show debut, Tosh will perform three stripped back performances of ‘Songs + Stories’ in a residency at Piano Smithfield in Barbican from November 20th until December 4th 2023. He is currently putting together plans for bigger shows next Spring.
‘Songs + Stories’ will celebrate Tosh’s storied career so far, featuring songs from Dreamgirls, The Drifters Girl, Ain’t Too Proud and more alongside some original material performed live for the first time.
The last few years have seen this West End mainstay take up the mantle of many a musical legend. Tosh’s theatre credits include playing David Ruffin in Ain’t Too Proud (Price Edward Theatre, West End), Pharaoh in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Princess of Wales Theatre, Toronto), Ben E. King, Rudy Lewis & others in The Drifters Girl (Garrick Theatre, West End), Jimmy Early in Dreamgirls (Savoy Theatre, West End) and Joe in Show Boat (Gillian Lynne Theatre, West End).

Richard Schoch explores what daily life would have been like in the Shakespeare household and how the buildings that surrounded him have become hotspots. He describes how the unassuming residence on Henley Street was turned into a museum in the 19th century, long after the deaths of its original inhabitants, cementing the turn in the playwright’s popularity after the snub of the 1700s.

The book is jam-packed with facts and dates, but it flows well and it’s easy to follow - a delectable piece of microhistory and the perfect stocking filler for those who dabble in bardolatry.
