The World Premiere of This Little Life of Mine will run at Park Theatre for a limited season from 4 October - 29 October, with press night on 5 October. This brilliant, brand new production will run in Park90, and will be the first musical drama to examine the lives of modern Londoners, with the pressure of high expectation and the worry of underachieving. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
A story about the gulf between desire and reality, This Little Life of Mine speaks with honesty and candour to a generation spoiled for choice, and challenged by it too. While exploring contemporary themes, from dating to infertility to getting on the property ladder, the show has a timeless love story at its heart. This Little Life of Mine is a musical drama, which is as funny as it is moving.
The book for This Little Life of Mine is written by Michael Yale, who will also be directing this World Premiere. The music is written by Charlie Round-Turner, with set and costume design by Zahra Mansouri, choreography by Tracy Allsop, lighting design by Joules McCready, video artistry by Jack Henry James, and musical direction by Thomas Duchan.
The full cast for This Little Life of Mine is Greg Barnett (Raphael/Dom/Tom/Steve/Doctor), Kate Batter (Izzy), Caroline Deverill (Tina/Fiona/Margaret/Receptionist), and James Robinson (Jonesy).
Take a bitingly funny and deeply touching tour of modern London life with Izzy and Jonesy. With exciting jobs, great friends and even a tiny overpriced flat in Zone 2 - they've got it all. Or do they? Maybe having a baby is the one last thing that would make everything perfect. Or perhaps life has other ideas...
We're all busy people chasing our dreams and looking for instant gratification from the things we do - our online posts, our careers, our loves and our lovers. We're told we can have anything we like, and that we have more choices than any other generation in history.
Set against an instantly recognisable backdrop of eye-watering house prices, unreliable dating apps and over-friendly coffee baristas, This Little Life of Mine looks at what happens when we can't have everything that we want.
