Broadway's smash-hit musical Dear Evan Hansen will open at the Noel Coward Theatre in November 2019. Writing in the Daily Mail, Entertainment columnist Baz Bamigboye announced Producers for the show had confirmed Dear Evan Hansen would open at the Noel Coward Theatre in late 2019.  It was anticipated the musical would open earlier in 2019, however, Producers wanted to ensure they had the right theatre and plenty of time for casting. Fans of the hit musical had assumed Tony Award winner Ben Platt, who originated the role on Broadway or Taylor Tench who took over from Platt might open the show in London, however, earlier this year Producer Stacey Mindich let it be known they were looking for a British person to lead the cast. Dear Evan Hansen opened on Broadway in 2016 to widespread critical acclaim, winning a Grammy Award and six Tony Awards including Best Original Score for Benji Pasek and Justin Paul, Best Book of a Musical for Steven Levenson, and Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical for Ben Platt.

Broadway Hits We Want To See Transfer To The West End in 2019 You might think the West End is awash with Broadway shows, but unfortunately we only see a fraction of top Broadway and off-Broadway productions, and even then we might have to wait years (it took Dreamgirls 35 years) for the show to transfer to London. With the recent announcemnt that Kinky Boots, Dreamgirls, Young Frankenstein and Chicago will close at the end of their booking periods, there appears to be plenty of change in London's theatre-land. Here's a list of 12 Broadway musicals we'd like to see transfer in 2019. 1. Dear Evan Hansen A captivating new and original musical that swept the 2017 Tony Awards, winning six of its nine nominations including Best Musical, Best Actor and Best Score. Dear Evan Hansen is about a lonely teenager who inadvertently becomes a social media sensation despite his popularity being founded on a web of lies.  With a score from La La Land's Benj Pasek and Justin Paul you'll come out humming more than one great song. Dear Evan Hansen Producer Stacey Mindich outlined her plans for the London run to the Daily Mail earlier this year, so we're tipping this show to open at the Adelphi Theatre following Kinky Boots departure in January 2019 or the Noel Coward Theatre.  Book tickets to DEAR EVAN HANSEN London   2. Waitress Nominated for 4 Tony Awards including Best Musical, this feel-good Broadway musical is based on the hit 2007 indie film Waitress. With the smell of baked pies wafting into the audience and and tunes from American singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles in your ear Waitress will leave you with a warm glow. UPDATE: 24 September 2018. Waitress will begin pre-view performances on 8 February 2019 ahead of its official opening night on 7 March 2019 at the Adelphi Theatre, London. Book tickets to Waitress   3. Mean Girls The Musical Mean Girls The Musical Tina Fey's highly anticipated musical adaptation of the hit teen film opened to glowing reviews at the August Wilson Theatre on Broadway, picking up 12 Tony Award nominations in the process. Like West End hit Everybody's Talking About Jamie the show has themes of anti-bully, female empowerment and self acceptance combined with a catchy score and ferociously funny book. Find out more info on Mean Girls The Musical 4. My Fair Lady Harry Hadden-Paton & Lauren Ambrose in My Fair Lady Do we need another My Fair Lady? With 10 Tony nominations, Bartlett Sher's (The King and I) revival of a classic Golden Age musical includes a stellar cast led by Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under), Harry Hadden-Paton (Downton Abbey), Norbert Leo Butz (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels) and Diana Rigg (Game of Thrones). We can't wait! Inspiredby George Bernard Shaw’s version of the Pygmalion story Sher drew from the 1938 movie starring Wendy Hiller and Leslie Howard more than any other iteration of the story. My Fair Lady tell's the story of Eliza Doolittle, a young Cockney flower seller, and Henry Higgins, a linguistics professor who is determined to transform her into his idea of a “proper lady.” But who is really being transformed? 5. Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 'A musical cannonball unlike anything else on Broadway' so says The Guardian.  With 12 Tony nominations including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Book, Best Actor and Best Actress - Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 is definitely worthy of a West End transfer. Based on 70 pages of Tolstoy's War and Peace, Dave Malloy's sung-through musical focuses on Natasha's affair with Anatole and Pierre's search for meaning in his life. Described as an 'electro-pop opera' Malloy's score combines Russian folk and classical music with indie rock and EDM influences. 6. Hello, Dolly! Hello, Dolly! with Bette Midler Bette Midler is undoubtedly the star attraction in this energetic revival of Jerry Herman’s 1964 musical comedy. Jerry Herman’s score abounds with catchy songs (Put on Your Sunday Clothes; It Only Takes a Moment; and Hello, Dolly!) and Warren Carlyle's choreography combined with Santo Loquasto's set and comstume is a feast for the eyes. But it's always about The Divine Miss M, and her Tony Award winning performance as meddlesome mathcmaker Dolly Gallagher Levi in this old school musical is captivating. More info on Hello, Dolly! 7. Groundhog Day The Musical Groundhog Day The Musical Technically not a Broadway transfer as it had a limited run at the Old Vic in 2016, but following its short Broadway run it's time to bring this hit musical comedy from Matthew Warchus and Tim Minchin, the creative team behind Matilda The Musical, back for a full West End season. Based on the hit 1993 film starring Billy Murray, Groundhog Day is the story of a cynical TV weatherman who is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in an isolated small town of America. When he suddenly finds himself caught in a time loop, he's forced to repeat the same day again and again…and again. More info on Groundhog Day The Musical 8. Fun Home Winner of five 2015 Tony Awards including Best Musical Fun Home will have its London premiere off-West End at the Young Vic Theatre. Based on Alison Bechdel’s best-selling graphic memoir, Fun Home is a refreshingly honest musical about seeing your parents through grown-up eyes, a blazingly original heartbreaker and a non-stop treasure of invention. Expect a West End transfer! 9. Frozen Disney's Frozen From the beloved 2013 Academy Award-winning Disney film, this is the timeless tale of two sisters pulled apart by a mysterious secret. Both are searching for love. They just don’t know where to find it. While the beloved songs from the movie—including the Oscar-winning “Let It Go”—are included in the musical, audiences can expect new songs and elements not seen on screen, including the “hidden folk,” inspired by Scandinavian folklore. It's likely that Disney will wait for a large scale theatre to become available like The Palladium or the Prince Edward Theatre (home to Aladdin). The Theatre Royal Drury Lane would be a good fit but is scheduled for an 18 month multi-million pound refurb beginning in 2019 at the earliest. We might just have to wait till 2020!

This vibrant musical charts the incomparable life of Donna Summer —the undisputed Queen of Disco. Features more than 20 of Summer’s classic hits and electric dancing, all in tribute to the voice of a generation. It's typical juke-box fare but audiences have been flocking to the show with the hit musical playing to 92 percent capacity and grossing over $1 million in a week. Expect a party time when this disco queen transfers. More info on Summer: The Donna Summer Musical  11. Pretty Woman The Musical Not quite open on Broadway, but the musical adaptation of the Julie Robert's and Richard Gere classic would be a welcome West End treat. Pretty Woman reinvented a genre, swept the world off its feet, and made millions believe in happily ever after. Helmed by Jerry Mitchell (Kinky Boots, Hairspray) the musical has a score by Bryan Adams and his longtime songwriting partner Jim Vallance, with a book by Garry Marshall and the film's screenwriter J.F. Lawton. More info on Pretty Woman The Musical 12.

Rising musical theatre star Tyrone Huntley is tipped to play Evan Hansen in London With the recent un-official confirmation by Daily Mail Show Biz Columnist Baz Bamigboye of the London transfer of Dear Evan Hansen, thoughts have immediately turned to who will play socially awkward teenager Evan Hansen. Ben Platt in Dear Evan Hansen Fans of the hit musical had assumed Tony Award winner Ben Platt, who originated the role on Broadway or Taylor Tench who took over from Platt might open the show in London however this is not to be. Producer Stacey Mindich let it be known they were looking for a British person to lead the cast and they would be using blind casting. In her ‘conversation’ with Bamigboye she said they wanted audiences to feel as close to Evan as possible. Mindich also ‘dropped’ into the conversation that she had been made aware of a bell-ringing performance of ‘Waving Through A Window’ by Tyrone Huntley at the recent What’s On Stage Awards, though that didn’t mean he would get the role. Tyrone Huntley in Dreamgirls | Photo: Brinkhoff Mögenburg Huntley has a growing list of musical theatre credits with stand-out performances playing Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar at the Open Air Theatre and more recently playing C.C. White in the original London production of Dreamgirls. Other West End roles include Motown The Musical and Memphis The Musical at the Shaftesbury Theatre and The Book of Mormon at the Prince of Wales. Dear Evan Hansen is a six-time Tony Award-winning musical about a socially awkward teenager, who overcomes his inability to connect with people and make friends by fabricating a story about a classmate who has suddenly died.

Producers for the Tony Award winning musical Dear Evan Hansen have unofficially confirmed the hit show will transfer to London's West End. Talking to the Daily Mail, Broadway Producer Stacey Mindich outlined her plans for the London production which included having a Brit play the lead role and using blind-casting. She stated 'it was important for audiences to feel as close to Evan as possible.' Of course this also confirms that Ben Platt will not be reprising his Tony Award winning performance when the show eventually transfers. Dear Evan Hansen opened on Broadway in 2016 to widespread critical acclaim, winning 6 Tony Awards including Best Original Score for Benji Pasek and Justin Paul, Best Book of a Musical for Steven Levenson, and Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical for Platt. The show is a contemporary new musical about a high school student who suffers from social anxiety, which inhibits his ability to connect with people and make friends. When a classmate suddenly dies he fabricates a story which brings him closer to the boy's family but also allows him to grow. Benji Pasek and Justin Paul are the song-writing team behind smash-hit films La La Land starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling and Hugh Jackman's The Greatest Showman. Their other projects include the musical adaptation of James and the Giant Peach, the Tony-nominated A Christmas Story: The Musical and the forthcoming live action Disney film of Aladdin. Dates and venue have yet to be confirmed however this won't stop us speculating on where the show might land. If Producers were hoping for a similar size theatre to the 1000 seat Music Box Theatre on Broadway, the Phoenix Theatre or the Aldwych Theatre would be a natural fit. Based on ticket sales it looks like Tina Turner will be playing for the foreseeable and Chicago has a limited run so it might just land at the Phoenix. If they were game they could go for the 1500 seat Adelphi Theatre, but this would require Kinky Boots to vacate. Alternatively, if they wanted to play it safe the 850 seater Noel Coward Theatre would make a good fit. Keep an eye out for our Dear Evan Hansen London production fantasy casting post. Rest assured when all the details are announced we'll be posting it right here! UPDATE 3/Oct/2018: Dear Evan Hansen will open at the Noel Coward Theatre, London in 2019.

Dear Evan Hansen has won the 2018 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album, beating out Come From Away and Bette Midler’s revival of Hello, Dolly! Sharing the win for Dear Evan Hansen are its original cast Tony-winning Ben Platt, Laura Dreyfuss, Mike Faist, Kristolyn Lloyd, Michael Park, Will Roland, Jennifer Laura Thompson, fellow Tony winner Rachel Bay Jones and composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. Benj Pasek and Justin Paul have now won an Oscar, Tony and Grammy in less than a year, and with the release of Hugh Jackman musical film The Greatest Showman, more awards are soon to follow. With the Grammy’s held in New York for the first time since 2003, performances at the awards ceremony included Ben Platt singing ‘Somewhere’ from West Side Story and Patti Lupone singing ‘Don’t Cry For Me Argentina’ from Evita. Eyebrows were raised in theatre-land when it was announced Ms Lupone and Lloyd Webber would be working together on the song which required re-scoring to fit in with the televised broadcast.  At the rehearsal Lupone announced "This is détente, ladies and gentlemen,” as she hugged LLoyd Webber, putting to bed their two decade feud and one of Broadway's guilty pleasures. Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda also won a Grammy for Best Song Written for Visual Media for the Moana anthem “How Far I’ll Go.” and Leonard Bernstein was recognised for Best Historical Album. Dear Evan Hansen will open in November 2019 at the Noel Coward Theatre, London. DEAR EVAN HANSEN is booking from 29 October 2019 until 4 April 2020 at the Noel Coward Theatre, London.
