After playing Fiyero in Wicked for over 1,700 performances on both Broadway and in the national tour, Jordan Litz has crossed the pond to join the show’s West End cast to celebrate its 20th anniversary. We had the chance to speak with Litz about returning to the role of Fiyero, this time in London. We discussed how he first got the role, how the show has changed his life for the better and how he ran in the New York Marathon and did two performances in the same day!

Having originated the role of Hercules at the Paper Mill Playhouse in New Jersey in 2023, Bradley Gibson is returning to Disney’s Hercules, this time in London's West End from 29 June!

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Drew Gasparini, who wrote the music and lyrics for The Karate Kid. We discussed what his creative process has been like for the show, what it’s like to write for an adaptation versus an original piece of work and even how he didn’t actually want to be a part of the Karate Kid musical in the first place!

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Scott Karim, who has taken over the role of Mary’s Husband in Oh, Mary! from Giles Terera. We discussed what made him want to be a part of this production, what made the rehearsal process unique and even what he thinks makes this comedic play so special.

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Eleanor Worthington-Cox, who plays multiple roles in Please Please Me, including Cynthia Lennon and Cilla Black. We discussed what it is like to be taking on the roles of such historic women, her personal ties to the story and what she hopes audiences take away from the show.

BroadwayWorld spoke with actor Jeroen Frank Kales about taking on the titular role of Vincent van Gogh in Vincent in Brixton.

Recently, we had the chance to speak with Alfred Enoch about taking on the titular role of Shakespeare's Henry V.

What do World War II, dishwashers and beef have in common? They all play an important role in Pierre Novellie’s newest hour of comedy, Pierre Novellie: You Sit There, I’ll Stand Here. The show has a short and sweet description that tells it exactly like it is - “It's time for Pierre to do stand-up. It's time for you to watch.”

Chloe Petts: Big Naturals might take its name from one of the things comedian Chloe Petts loves the most (it is quite unfair how early a show has to have a title, isn’t it?), but it’s more about the life of Petts, less about one of her favourite things - but more on that later. For now, Petts is ready to tell us all about what it was like for her to grow up. But what inspired this reflection?

Ghosts, a walking tour and a missing Shakespeare play . . . Put these three things together and you have Samuel Barnett’s Unknown. The podcast, written and researched by James Goss and directed by Scott Handcock, stars Samuel Barnett and Tom Price as versions of themselves taking a walking tour around London in order to solve the mystery of Cardenio.

Written by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields, Christmas Carol Goes Wrong sees the return of Mischief’s beloved Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, which was first seen by audiences in The Play That Goes Wrong over ten years ago. The show actually picks up where the last “Goes Wrong” show, Peter Pan Goes Wrong, left off, with the Cornley crew putting on a production of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol.

For those unfamiliar with Phil Ellis and his style of comedy, they might be more than just a bit confused by the start of Bath Mat. Instead of Ellis himself taking the stage, it’s fellow comedian Tom Short dressed up as a DJ, getting the audience warmed up. Finally, the man of the hour arrives, crashing onto the stage, unable to see as he’s wearing a bin bag over his head. This is the start of Bath Mat, and it only gets stranger from there.

Alison Spittle: BIG begins with Spittle entering the stage wearing a costume made out of colourful loofahs, before pulling it off to reveal a sequined outfit underneath. But this isn’t just a costume reveal - Spittle confesses to the audience that, while she is still fat (and has been since she was eight), she has recently lost a considerable amount of weight. BIG is about not only the weight loss journey, but Spittle’s relationship with her body over the years.

In Norwich’s 2025 pantomime, Cinderella, audiences are transported to the beach town of Crabbington Sands, where Cinderella (Georgie May Foote) has been trapped in the old hotel that her deceased parents used to run by her wicked sisters, Lou (Owen Evans) and Lav (Kenny Moore). But, when Cinderella is able to escape for a day, she finds herself running into the Prince (Danny Hatchard) and falling in love, working to achieve her happily ever after with help from her friend Buttons (Joe Tracini) and her Fairy Godmother (Hannah-Jane Fox).
