In the new issue of Musicals, Aliya Al-Hassan catches up with SIX creators Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss ahead of the premiere of their brand-new full length musical Why Am I So Single?, ‘a big fancy musical’ that combines Musical Theatre with pop to celebrate the importance of platonic love.
From stepping into Martine McCutcheon’s shoes in My Fair Lady and starring as Elphaba in Wicked on Broadway, to tapping her way through Anything Goes and jamming with Brian May, star of the stage Kerry Ellis talks to Claire Allfree as she prepares to embark on her Queen of the West End UK tour coinciding with the launch of her autobiography.
Mickey-Jo Boucher explores the world of fan culture that surrounds musicals such as Heathers, Come From Away and Operation Mincemeat. He speaks to devotees who have instigated revivals, garnered recognition from MI5, and changed lives through their love of Musical Theatre.
Musical Theatre legend Elaine Paige returns to our pages with her regular column celebrating the shows that revolutionised Musical Theatre. This time, it’s the singular sensation A Chorus Line.
Mean Girls, Kiss Me, Kate, Starlight Express, Kathy and Stella Solve a Murder and the touring production of A Chorus Line feature in our UK show reviews – and don’t miss our US show reviews, including Galileo and the Off-Broadway production of Cats: The Jellicle Ball.
