New Musical Ride returns to London
Following its acclaimed world premiere at Charing Cross Theatre, hit musical Ride is coming back to London, to Southwark Playhouse Elephant.
Based on an extraordinary true story, this new musical charts one woman’s radical act, and explores the lies we tell to escape ourselves.
Written by Freya Catrin Smith and Jack Williams, and directed by Sarah Meadows, the show sees Liv Andrusier return in her OffWestEnd Award-winning performance as Annie Londonderry, alongside Katy Ellis as Martha Smith and Fallon Mondlane as the alternate for both roles.
Ride is playing from 19 July to 12 August at Southwark Playhouse Elephant in London.
The year is 1895, and Annie Londonderry returns to America as the first woman to ever cycle around the globe.
She’s a brave pioneer and wants to pitch her story to the New York World, but she can’t do it alone. Luckily, she doesn’t have to. Joined by secretary Martha Smith, they begin to share Annie’s fantastical adventures. However, the cracks soon start to show and leave Annie in the position of confronting a past she wants to leave unexplored.
