New musical The Little Big Things gets its official opening tonight, 14 September 2023, @sohoplace theatre in London. And that means production photos (by Pamel Raith) are in for the show – which has caused quite a stir during its previews.
Let’s just say expectations are high!
We’ll be tracking the reviews tomorrow – so check back for more.
Also check out The Little Big Things rehearsal photos.
The show has already got a good start, with Andrew Lloyd Weber taking to X at the weekend to say that it’s a “total triumph” and that “I’ve just had the most exciting night in a theatre for years” – hopefully excluding his own productions!
The Little Big Things is the life-affirming true story of Henry Fraser, an avid sportsman and academy player with a premiership Rugby club whose life changed forever in 2009 when he had a diving accident and was paralysed from the shoulders down.
Henry is now an accomplished mouth artist, motivational speaker and author, with his memoir The Little Big Things proving a best-seller.
The cast of The Little Big Things includes Ed Larkin (Doctors, Love and Information) as adult Henry, Jonny Amies (Grantchester, From Here to Eternity) as the boy Henry, Linzi Hateley (Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, Mamma Mia! ) as Fran, and Alasdair Harvey (Come From Away, We Will Rock You) as Andrew, alongside Jordan Benjamin (Dom), Rebecca Bowden (Surgeon), Jamie Chatterton (Tom), Tom Oliver (Marco), Malinda Parris (Dr Graham), Cleve September (Will) and Amy Trigg (Agnes) with Stephen John Davis, Elena Pitsiaeli, George Salmon, Amy West and Joseph Wolff.
The show is directed by Luke Sheppard (In Dreams, & Juliet, My Son’s a Queer), and written by Nick Butcher (music and lyrics), Tom Ling (lyrics), and Joe White (book).
The Little Big Things is playing at @sohoplace to 25 November 2023.
