To Sir, With Love tells the true story of Rick Braithwaite, a Cambridge-educated engineer and former RAF fighter pilot who battles societal prejudices at every turn. Refusing to bow to adversity, Braithwaite engages his students not as troublesome youths, but as emerging adults preparing for the challenges of the real world. His story of strength, resilience, and perseverance resonates just as deeply in today’s social climate.
 
The concert reading will feature an original score by John Farrar, Kara DioGuardi, and the iconic song, ‘To Sir, with Love’ by Mark London, and Don Black. It is adapted for the stage by Kris Lythgoe. The production’s music will be brought to life under the direction of Kenny Seymour, known for his work on Broadway's Ain't Too Proud: The Life and Times of the Temptations. Destiny Lilly handles casting at Telsey + Company, and general management is under Aaron Grant. The concert is produced by Lythgoe Productions, with Willette and Manny Klausner joining as co-producers.
