Casting announced for Parade at London Theatre Workshop

The production has a two week run at the Fulham venue this September

Ross Barnes and Lily De-La-Haye

A new production of Jason Robert Brown's Parade will open at the London Theatre Workshop in September.

The production, directed by Jody Tranter, features a cast of 13 actors in multiple roles including Ross Barnes, Lily De-La-Haye, Kerry Loosemore and Daniel Holley (recently seen on Britain's Got Talent as part of Kingdom Tenors).

The cast is completed by Brandon Force, Norton James, Dudley Rogers, Jennifer Webster, Jon Parry, Michael Moulton, Nazarene Williams, Samuel Clifford and Victoria Hope.

The multi-Olivier nominated show was first staged on Broadway and came to London at the Donmar Warehouse in 2007 starring Bertie Carvel and Lara Pulver. Set in 1913, Parade is based on the true story of Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-born Jew living in Georgia, who is accused and put on trial for raping and murdering one of his factory employees.

Parade runs 1-13 September at the London Theatre Workshop. For tickets and more information, click here.
