Following sold-out runs at the West End’s Arts Theatre and the Charing Cross Theatre, a 10th anniversary production of Ushers: The Front of House Musical will play London's The Other Palace April 10-May 19.
Directed by Max Reynolds, opening night is set for April 17. Casting will be announced at a later date.
Ushers, which features music and lyrics by Yiannis Koutsakos, lyrics by James Oban, and a book by James Rottger, follows a working shift in the lives of the front-of-house staff of a theatre. A preview performance of a new jukebox musical is due to take place, a workplace romance is on the rocks, an untrained newbie is working her first shift, and the amorous manager is under pressure to cut costs.
The show opened at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2015 after a 2014 run at the Charing Cross Theatre and transferred to the Arts Theatre in the West End in October 2015.
Producer James Steel said in a statement, “A decade has passed since our opening of our original cult British musical, and we're excited to reintroduce the vibrant energy of our industry to a brand-new audience. Working on this show brings immense joy, and we're proud to maintain our commitment to Equity's 'Professionally Made, Professionally Paid' campaign, upholding the standards set at the inception of the show at the Hope Theatre over a decade ago."
James Steel Productions and Maryann Wright Productions produce.
