The official poster for the highly anticipated new West End musical based on the international hit reality competition series created by Simon Cowell, THE X FACTOR, titled I CAN'T SING, is now available to view.

The official description of I CAN'T SING is as follows: "Written by Harry Hill and Steve Brown, the brand new comedy features 19 original songs and goes behind the microphone and under the judges' desk to reveal the (not necessarily accurate) story of heartache and laughter that keeps millions tuning in to the X Factor every week."

Additional casting details for I CAN'T SING are as follows: "As previously announced, Olivier Award-winner Nigel Harman will play X Factor supremo Simon, with CYNTHIA ERIVO (recent Evening Standard Award nominee for The Color Purple) and Alan Morrissey as lovestruck contestants Chenice and Max. Joining Nigel on the judging panel will be Ashley Knight as the ever-positive boyband manager Louis and VICTORIA ELLIOT as pop queen Jordy. Simon Bailey will play the overly affectionate X Factor host Liam O'Deary, with Billy Carter as Executive Producer and Simon's right hand man, Gerard Smalls."

Staged at the London Palladium, I CAN'T SING is set to premiere in March 2014, with previews beginning February 27 in a production written by Harry Hill and Steve Brown, directed by Sean Foley, featuring Nigel Harman as Simon Cowell.
