British writer and director Clint Dyer, who is deputy artistic director of the National Theatre and director of West End musical Get Up, Stand Up! The Bob Marley Musical, is working on a new stage project. Baz in Deadline (see link below) is reporting that Dyer, and composer and musician Teddy Abrams, who is musical director of the Louisville Orchestra, are working together on a new musical based on the life story of world heavyweight boxing champion and civil rights campaigner Muhammad Ali. The show, titled ALI, has the blessing of Ali's widow, Lonnie Ali, and producers are aiming for a November 2024 opening on Broadway. Clint Dyer directed the acclaimed production of This Is England at the National, and his forthcoming production of Shakespeare's Othello opens in November 2022 starring Giles Terera as Othello and Paul Hilton as Iago. Dyer is set to both write the book of the new musical and direct, with Abrams writing the score. The creators are also bringing in an African-American writer to work as co-lyricist on the project. ALI's lead producer is US-based producer Richard Willis, who brought UK hits Jerusalem and One Man, Two Guvnors to Broadway. Willis told Baz that it was going to be, "a show of shows. Right now it’s about getting the story going and understanding what we have to do.” Abrams has form in creating work about Muhammad Ali, having wrote a rap-oratorio about his life in 2017. ALI will be produced by Richard Willis, Brook T. Smith and TheTribecaWorkshop in collaboration with ABG Entertainment in partnership with Lonnie Ali.

Clint Dyer will replace Dominic Cooke as the director of Get Up, Stand Up!, a new Bob Marley musical set to premiere in London's West End next February. The former Royal Court artistic director whose hits include Clybourne Park and most recently Follies at the National Theatre, has withdrawn from the project following recent discussions about race in the theatre industry. Dominic Cooke departs Get Up, Stand Up! The Bob Marley Musical Cooke said: "In recent weeks the conversation about race has changed in theatre, as it has across society. With that in mind, and after much reflection, I have decided to step aside from my role to make way for Clint Dyer to lead the project. "Clint is a brilliant theatre-maker and an inspiring leader. I can't wait to see what he brings to this powerful story. I have offered to support him in whatever way I can." In a statement Dyer said: "Having had the pleasure and education of working for Dominic as a writer/director at the Royal Court and with him at the National Theatre as an actor spanning decades, he has always been a man of great integrity, sensitivity and of course immense talent. So, in many regards it is of no surprise, that while having actually earned his ‘stripes' as it were, he would still show such respect, dignity and heart. I have great admiration for his decision, and I am incredibly honoured to be offered the opportunity to take on the role of director. "As a British-Jamaican I have been a Marleyite since I could hear, so understand the great honour this actually is. I hope we can take forward the amazing work that Lee and Dominic have done so far and bring this story to life in a conscious, uplifting and joyous way. Bob has been an inspiration to millions and right now we need his unifying voice and ideas, to guide and inspire us towards redemption and true hope for the future." Dyer's credits include The Big Life at Theatre Royal Stratford East and Death of England (with Roy Williams) at the National Theatre.
