Three extensive new behind-the-scenes promotional featurettes for the forthcoming West End page-to-stage adaptation of FROM HERE TO ETERNITY are now available to view, highlighting the creative team and cast of the exciting new musical hard at work on bringing the show to the stage.

The imaginatively packaged promos showcase the attractive and talented cast as well as the accomplished creative team hard at work in perfecting the new musical in time for previews beginning at the end of next month, with previews beginning September 30.

In the first promo, lyricist Sir Tim Rice himself narrates a vintage-style newsreel with footage from the rehearsals of the complex show, while the second video focuses on the military characters within it.

Additionally, the third featurette explores the intricate fight choreography employed in the choreography and movement of the new musical.

Starring Darius Campbell, Siubahn Harrison, Robert Lonsdale, Ryan Sampson and Rebecca Thornhill, FROM HERE TO ETERNITY features lyrics by Sir Tim Rice and music by Stuart Brayson, with book by Bill Oakes and direction by Tamara Harvey.

The official plot synopsis of FROM HERE TO ETERNITY is as follows: "Pearl Harbor, 1941, where the girls sing 'don'cha like Hawaii,' the men of G Company sing the blues, and where even on an army base, love and desire are never very far away. When the troubled Private Prewitt falls for the kind hearted escort club girl Lorene, and when his platoon sergeant, Warden, embarks on a dangerous affair with his commanding officer's wife, Karen, the lives of both men are set on a course they cannot control. As war approaches, the worlds of the four lovers and the soldiers of G Company are dramatically ripped apart."

FROM HERE TO ETERNITY begins previews on September 30 at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London's West End. More information is available at the official site here.
