The world premiere of romantic new musical Killing the Cat at the Riverside Studios in London.

This exciting new musical collaboration is between a UK and US writing team, and produced by British and American producers, with its world première in London this spring prior to Off-Broadway.

Directed by Jenny Eastop, the show boasts a book and lyrics by ‘Walking With Dinosaurs’ writer Warner Brown, and music by radical American composer Joshua Schmidt.

An impressive cast includes Madalena Alberto (Evita, Chicago, Les Miserables), Molly Lynch (The Last Five Years), Tim Rogers (Jesus Christ Superstar, Aspects of Love), Kluane Saunders (Relatively Speaking, Equus), and Joaquin Pedro Valdes (The Lion King, Heathers).

Killing the Cat is playing at the Riverside Studios in London from 17 March to 22 April 2023.

What happens when you’re falling for someone but don’t share their beliefs? What happens when you’re so sure you’re right you won’t move an inch? Does love stand a chance? 

In the heady world of the Romantic Poets, scientific theories and certainties, can lust and love keep two polar opposites together beyond the first night?
