Tompsett, Janson, et al. Set for FIRST THINGS LAST, Jan. 30

Oliver Tompsett (Wicked), Cassidy Janson (Avenue Q) and Lucy May Barker (Spring Awakening) will join Emmy Award winning US composer Lance Horne and an array of West End and Broadway stars in Lance Horne: First Things Last for one night only at the Garrick Theatre on Sunday 30 January 2011.

Cassidy Janson recently starred as Kate Monster / Lucy The Slut in Avenue Q and Lucy May Barker, who was a part of London's original cast of Spring Awakening has recently been seen in Rupert Goold's National Theatre production Earthquakes in London and is currently filming opposite Daniel Radcliffe in the new film adaptation of the West End behemoth The Woman in Black.

Lance Horne: First Things Last will also star Olivier and Tony Award winner Alan Cumming and internationally acclaimed "postmodern cabaret diva" Meow Meow, alongside West End favourites Julie Atherton (Avenue Q), Paul Spicer (Avenue Q), Hannah Waddingham (The Wizard of Oz) and Emma Williams (Love Story), with special guest Broadway star Norm Lewis. Hot on the heels of its inclusion in the Lincoln Center's acclaimed American Songbook series, Lance Horne: First Things Last celebrates the release of Lances' debut album of the same name.

Lance Horne: First Things last is produced by Neil Eckersley & Paul Spicer for Speckulation Entertainment, and directed by Daisy Prince, with musical direction by Lance Horne, and sound design by Ben Evans.
