Videos: Watch Two Songs from New Tony Marlow & Lucy Moss Musical, WHY AM I SO SINGLE?

From the multi-award-winning writers of SIX, Toby Marlow & Lucy Moss, comes their all-new second musical, WHY AM I SO SINGLE? This Big Fancy Musical follows two besties through the ups, and mostly downs, of their dating lives in the era of Tinder (and Bumble and Grindr and Hinge and Feeld). The musical extravaganza about love, dating, friendship– and the birds & bees– explores the weird and wonderful hilariousness of being single.  

Featuring epic pop and musical-inspired songs by the dynamic writing team of Marlow & Moss, and high-energy choreography by  Ellen Kane (Matilda the Musical, Working Title Films; Dear England, National Theatre/West  End), WHY AM I SO SINGLE? is set to dazzle the dating world this autumn. Performances run Tuesday 27th August 2024 – Thursday 13th February 2025 at the Garrick Theatre. 

Get your first look at the West End musical with two teaser videos below! First up is Jo Foster singing about the relatable situation of a canceled date turned friends' night out!  

A celebration of friendship and love, WHY AM I SO SINGLE? asks how two super interesting,  super cool, super fun pals could still be single?!? This extraordinary and totally unexplainable situation faced by our fabulous duo is made even more complicated by the fact that, on a completely unrelated note, they also need to find a great topic for their next musical.  

Here's another sneak peek of Why Am I So Single? with a clip of Leesa Tulley singing 'Literally Fine.'

As BroadwayWorld previously reported, lead casting has been announced with Jo Foster (& Juliet; Just For One Day, West End;) returning from the show’s early workshop to co-star in this epic musical for the ages. They will be seen alongside the newly cast Leesa Tulley (SIX, UK Tour; Kin, Theatro Technis) as their bff. They are joined on stage by Noah Thomas (Everything Now, Netflix; Everybody’s Talking  About Jamie, West End). The ensemble casting is to be announced.  

'This is ultimately a musical about two friends, their  desire for love, and how they deal with loneliness. We hope people come away feeling super  uplifted. And we hope they text someone the second they leave the theatre saying ‘omigosh just  fyi i love you soooo much!!!!’ Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss shared.
