The cast and crew of The Railway Children at King's Cross Theatre have filmed their own version of Uptown Funk for the Theatre Funk Challenge for Acting For Others. Check it out below!

The show, which opened at the King's Cross Theatre to critical and public acclaim on 14 January, following previews from 16 December 2014, will begin a new performance schedule from Wednesday 4 March (details below under Listings Information).

The cast of The Railway Children includes Caroline Harker as Mother, Louise Calf as Phyllis, Clare Corbett as Mrs Perks, Jack Hardwick as Peter, Mark Hawkins as Jim/District Super, Connie Hyde as Mrs Viney, Andrew Loudon as Father/Doctor, Serena Manteghi as Bobbie, Blair Plant as Schepansky and Moray Treadwell as the Old Gentleman, plus a children's ensemble made up of four teams of ten children aged between 9 and 15.

A purpose built 1,000-seat theatre, complete with a railway track and platforms, and with a state of the art heating system, has been specially created on the site on King's Boulevard, behind King's Cross Station, which has been loaned to the production for the duration of the run by Google. The York Theatre Royal production, which is in association with the National Railway Museum, once again features a live steam locomotive and a vintage carriage, originally built in 1896.
