Carnaby Street The Musical is currently running at The Hackney Empire, with Bob Tomson directing, through 14 April 2013 before embarking on a full UK tour. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
Aaron Sidwell takes on the role of 'Jack', and Matthew Wycliffe plays 'Jude', the idealistic musician who travels down to London to follow his dream of stardom. The cast also features Verity Rushworth ("Emmerdale", "Hairspray", "The Sound of Music") as 'Penny Lane', Tricia Adele-Turner ("Legally Blonde", "Blood Brothers", "We Will Rock You") as 'Jane', Mark Pearce ("Ghost - The Musical", "The Blues Brothers", and "Bugle Boy") as 'Wild Thing', Paul Hazel ("Avenue Q", "Desperately Seeking Susan", "The Lion King") as 'Lily the Pink' and Hugo Harold-Harrison ("Priscilla Queen of the Desert", "Fame", "Grease") as 'Arnold Layne'.
"Carnaby Street" is a new musical set against the backdrop of London's West End in the Sixties. The show explores the 60's as a time of hope and freedom and will feature hits from the era including "Keep On Running", "Go Now", "Shout", "Born To Be Wild" and many more. Universal Music released a companion compilation album which will also include recordings of original music used in the show.
"Carnaby Street" is directed by Bob Tomson, whose West End credits include "Blood Brothers" and "Dreamcoats and Petticoats", and designed by Matthew Wright ("La Cage aux Folles", "Evita").
