Edinburgh to London

 

We went to Edinburgh with two shows and we've come back with four! We've just announced London's first ever transfer season of new British musicals direct from Edinburgh, right in the heart of the West End at the Jermyn Street Theatre. The season is being headlined by two award wining shows and will also feature showcases of two exciting new musicals. For dates click here...

The Great British Soap Opera will begin the season following fantastic press and a sell out run. Composer Pippa Cleary has just won an MTM award for her work on the show and the transfer follows in the footsteps of our previous hit at Jermyn Street - Jet Set Go!

While in Edinburgh we were blown away by Over The Threshold which we had previously had our eye on while it was being developed with Perfect Pitch. The show just won the MTM award for Most Promising New Music and will take the two weeks after Soap Opera, with an amazing West End cast.

Alongside the headline shows Take Note Theatre present two works from promising young voices, demonstrating the company’s commitment to developing new musical theatre writing. Six Ways and Chat! The Internet Musical enjoyed successful runs in Edinburgh and this London season offers a unique opportunity for young writers to showcase their work in the capital.

Developed at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, Six Ways questions the existence of ‘the perfect relationship through the eyes of three couples as they battle with addiction, adultery and ambition. Chat! The Internet Musical is the debut of writer Lee Freeman and features a confused teenager, a narcissistic celebrity, a desperate housewife and a single mum who are brought together on a lonely night via the internet.

It should be a fantastic season at Jermyn Street and a chance to sample the flavours of the Edinburgh Fringe. More details and to book click here.
