International Cast Announced For Edinburgh Fringe Premiere Of OSCAR At The Crown

An international cast of nine has been announced for the UK premiere of the hit nightclub musical from New York, OSCAR at the Crown by The Neon Coven at the 2023 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

 

Joining Brooklyn-based performer and show creator Mark Mauriello onstage for the Fringe run in Assembly's Spiegeltent Palais Du Variete will be Melissa McCabe, Yeohyeon Jung, Letitia Hector, Billie Kerr, Elizabeth Chalmers, Jamie Cruttenden, Eloise Simpson and Kim Hudman.

 

Sequins, reality television, and the complete works of Oscar Wilde: not much else survives in a secret bunker far in the fascist future. Conceived by The Neon Coven, OSCAR at the Crown is an immersive nightclub musical phenomenon detailing the rise and fall of one of history's most flamboyant figures: Oscar Wilde.

 

Described by The New York Times as “a party-inducing Rocky Horror transplanted to a 1990s Madonna video” and by Metrosource as "steeped in its own subversion," and “a K-Pop/J-Pop/Scissor Sisters-on-speed electronic dance party euphoria” by Them OSCAR at the Crown explodes in a blaze of passion, spectacle, and heart-bursting catharsis.

 

Created by Mark Mauriello
