Wild About You in London

Following sold-out concerts at Theatre Royal Drury Lane, Keaka Productions LLC and Charing Cross Productions with Eric McCormack (Will & Grace, The Cottage), Michael Scott (The Hills of California) and Second Set LLC (Liberation) have announced that Wild About You will open at the Charing Cross Theatre from 18 January until 10 April 2027.

On the day of his high school graduation party, Billy, a young man feeling at odds with his future before it has even begun, finds a trunk of letters written to him by his late mother, whom he’d been told had abandoned him as a child. The discovery sets Billy and his best friend Scoot on a journey to uncover the truth about his past, and his connection to a woman he never knew, who might just be the key to understanding where he stands in the world.

Cast of Wild About You

The cast of Wild About You includes Jodie Steele (Heathers, SIX) as Olivia, Stewart Clarke (Be More Chill , Fiddler on the Roof) as Michael, and Alfie Friedman (The Undeclared War) as Billy.

The company also includes Danielle Steers, who is playing Jess, Bea Ward as Scoot, and Cassandra McCowan is handling the female ensemble track.

Creative team highlights

Music and lyrics for Wild About You are by actress and singer-songwriter Chilina Kennedy, who has starred in Jesus Christ Superstar and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical. The score blends contemporary songwriting with the lyrical depth and emotional intelligence of artists such as Joni Mitchell and Sara Bareilles.

The show includes electrifying melodic hooks to intimate and sensual acoustic moments, and the songs will stay with the audience long after they’ve left the theatre. It draws from a rich musical palette of contemporary folk, pop, rock, country-pop and soul to capture the extraordinary moments hidden within ordinary lives.

The creative team behind Wild About You includes director Kristin Hanggi (Rock of Ages, Romy and Michele: The Musical), Music Supervisor, Music Director, Orchestrator and Arranger Daniel Edmonds (The Great Gatsby, Shucked), Producer Brian Spector (The Hills of California) and Associate Producer Caitlin McNeilage (Leading Lady Club at 54 Below/Edinburgh Fringe) with further names to be announced.
