Bonnie Langford, Joanna Riding, and Bernadette Peters
Two West End favorites will join three-time Tony honoree Bernadette Peters for her upcoming concert at London's Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
Broadway favorite Peters—who will return to Broadway later this season in the hit London revue Stephen Sondheim's Old Friends—will play the London venue August 12 at 7:30 PM BST. She will be joined by two of her London Old Friends co-stars: Bonnie Langford (Doctor Who, Cats) and Olivier winner Joanna Riding (Carousel, My Fair Lady).
Bernadette Peters—Live From London will feature songs from
the actor's many theatrical outings, as well as her award-winning albums.
Attendees can expect to hear songs by Rodgers and Hammerstein, Stephen
Sondheim, and Jerry Herman, among others.
Peters received both Tony and Drama Desk Awards for her performance in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Song and Dance. She earned her second Tony for her work in Annie Get Your Gun. She also received Tony nominations for her performances in Sam Mendes’ critically acclaimed revival of Gypsy, Neil Simon’s The Goodbye Girl, Stephen Sondheim’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Sunday in the Park with George, the Jerry Herman-Gower Champion ode to the movies, Mack and Mabel, and the Leonard Bernstein-Comden and Green musical On the Town. She was last on Broadway in a critically acclaimed turn in the title role of Hello, Dolly! Peters
is also the recipient of the 2012 Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award. She
was seen on the London stage last year in the aforementioned Sondheim
revue, Stephen Sondheim's Old Friends.
Lambert Jackson, Cuffe and Taylor, and Live Nation Present will produce the concert.
