Casting announced for Hello Again at Hope Theatre

Michael John LaChiusa’s musical returns to London for the first time since its European premiere in 2001

Casting has been announced for the first British revival of Michael John LaChiusa's musical Hello Again, which opens at the Hope Theatre in Islington next month.

Olivier Award-winner Miles Western (Pageant, The Fix) leads the cast alongside Thea Jo Wolfe (Singin' in the Rain, Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens), Joshua LeClair (See Rock City and Other Destinations, She Loves Me), Isabella Messarra (professional debut) and Adam Colbeck-Dunn (Billy, Elegies for Angles, Punks and Raging Queens).

Based on the 1897 play La Ronde by Arthur Schnitzler, Hello Again focuses on a series of love affairs among ten characters during the ten different decades of the 20th century.

The musical received its professional European premiere in 2001 at London's Bridewell Theatre, with a cast that featured Jenna Russell, Matt Rawle, Charles Shirvell and Nigel Richards.

The show is produced by Play Pen Productions with direction from Tania Azevedo, choreography by Chloe Aliyanni and musical direction from Daniel Jarvis.

Hello Again runs at the Hope Theatre from 20 October – 7 November.
