Full casting was announced today for the world premiere of Richard Harris' new play Liza Liza Liza, which runs 4-29 September (with press night Friday 6 September) at West London's Tabard Theatre. Three actors will take the role of Liza Minnelli at specific moments in her life. 'Liza 1' will be Stephanie Ticknell-Smith, 'Liza 2' will be played by Sabrina Carterand 'Liza 3' will be played by Felicity Duncan.
The production is directed by Phil Willmott, designed by Colin Mayes and lighting design by Miguel Vincente.
Felicity Duncan is best known for portraying the role of Rosie in MAMMA MIA! and appearing in the West End and touring production of Fiddler on the Roof. Sabrina Carter was most recently seen in the West End production of One Man, Two Guvnors playing the role of Christine. She has also appeared in The 39 Steps and Wicked.
Liza Liza Liza is a play that turns back the years, and peels back the veneer, on one of Hollywood's most compelling living icons. The professional and private lives of Liza Minnelli have experienced dizzying highs and crashing lows all ruthlessly captured and sold by the world's media.
Playwright Richard Harris (Outside Edge, The Business of Murder) worked with Liza Minnelli in 1991 when she was cast in the film adaption of his award winning play Stepping Out. In his new play, Harris unearths and examines the tremendous and tragic tale of Liza's journey so far using interview and biographical quotes from Liza herself.
Liza Liza Liza is produced by Colin Hilton for Pulling Focus at the Tabard Theatre.
